Charles, Will you please post just the one line, which relates to the Atheros device in your system, that is returned by a lspci -nn | grep -i net command line. Sight of the Vendor:Device ID Pairing for the hardware will allow us to verify exactly which driver is required. [off topic] The latest kernel-ml-3.10.0-1.el6.elrepo package does now provide the alx kernel module. [/off topic] Alan.
