Issue
Install Network Problem
Hello everybody,
I have a problem with ClearOS 7.1 Final. I get my network card not to ride off.
lspci -nnv but recognizes the card = /
In a VM Installs, everything works. But not on real hardware.
Does anyone have an idea or the solution to the problem?

RedHat (therefore CentOS), upstream, dropped a number of older drivers from the kernel when they released v7. Sometimes replacements exist, other times they are hard to find. Tim Burgess has a copy of the forcedeth driver here.
From what I can make out the sundance driver has been dropped by el7 so you'd need to hunt down a source for it and compile it. You could try asking ElRepo - see this post. Good luck.

You are right that it may suggest drivers are not loaded for the D-Link card which could be an issue as I don't know where to get them from. I am not convinced a driver is loaded for the MCP61 as that would normally be the forcedeth driver. You may need to open up the "-A 3" to a higher number for the MCP61 so it lists the driver(s) available and in use.
I found this solution to work on my NVIDIA MCP61 network;

in ClearOS 6 the MCP61 is useing forcedeth and the D-Link used sundance. I know that, because i´ve a 2nd system with the same setup -

I'm not good with linux. But for the onboard interface:
A) too many drivers are loaded?
B) maybe the wrong?
For the D-Link, drivers are not loaded. is that correct?
Thanks again for your help. -
