New CentOS 7 install - Cannot connect network
Hi Folks,
I recently installed CentOS 7 and for some reason, I am not able to connect to a wired network. Currently, my network is showing as an "unmanaged" state in nmcli d.
(I am very new to a linux OS, so I apologize for the lack of knowledge)
Thanks,

Does this entry from the FAQ help?

Re: New CentOS 7 install - Cannot connect network
Yeah, I went through that previous to posting and still the same. It might be important to point out as well that there is no connection light showing on the router and the NIC card connection light is also not flashing. (I have confirmed that the NIC and cat5 cable are functional)
Re: New CentOS 7 install - Cannot connect network
What is your ethernet card? The output of lspci -nn | grep -i net might help to identify it.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.

Code: Select all
[Duo2 ~]$ grep 8086 /lib/modules/*/modules.alias | grep -i 10de
/lib/modules/2.6.32-504.8.1.el6.x86_64/modules.alias:alias pci:v00008086d000010DEsv*sd*bc*sc*i* e1000e
/lib/modules/3.10.68-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64/modules.alias:alias pci:v00008086d000010DEsv*sd*bc*sc*i* e1000e

[Duo2 ~]$
Silly question time: Is the NIC disabled via the system BIOS?

Re: New CentOS 7 install - Cannot connect network
Just double checked in the bios and it's enabled, although I was hoping that it might be that easy.
Also, the state is now showing "unavailable" for the connection in nmcli d; not sure if that changes anything.
Should I install " kmod-e1000e"? I currently don't have wifi connected either, so I would have to transfer it by flash drive.

Re: New CentOS 7 install - Cannot connect network
No. Not yet. Let's examine your system, as it stands.Should I install " kmod-e1000e"?
What does lsmod | grep e1000e show? Anything?
If the above shows nothing, please try (as root) modprobe e1000e and note if there is any error message. Then dmesg | tail -n 10. Does anything show up at the end of the dmesg log? And now repeat lsmod | grep e1000e

No error's showing in both that stand out (I'm assuming you didn't want to post all of the information generated from the logs?).

Re: New CentOS 7 install - Cannot connect network
So there was no error message produced when invoking modprobe e1000e ?
Does lsmod | grep e1000e show that the module is loaded into the kernel?
