The firewall on our modem is disabled. Afaik default Arch Linux
installations doesn't come up with firewall enabled. I don't have a
firewall on my Mac either. So I believe this has nothing to do with the
firewall. Thank you for your interest btw.

Are you running a firewall on the Arch box (or elsewhere in the
network) through which the avahi traffic has to pass? As I understand
it (various similar issues found through Google), you need to
explicitly allow mulitcast DNS traffic (udp 5353) for this feature to
work.

I did. However I found out that there's not much difference in the case of
host resolution. When hosts line is like the following:
$ cat /etc/nsswitch.conf | grep hosts
hosts: files dns
I can ping office.local from other machines on the network. If I change
that line like this:
hosts: files mdns
Have you configured your /etc/nsswitch.conf (server side) as suggested
on https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Avahi#Hostname_resolution ?

Hey There,
I've installed an Arch Linux server in our office for serving files over
the network via Bonjour/avahi. All computers are connected to an ADSL modem
via wireless. Only the server is connected via LAN. When I start the
server, I can ping it:
