I have F9 running on a computer with just one nic. Everything worked

the correct fix is.
I had a thread going about the recent "enhancement" to NetworkManager. After
applying that both my hardwire and wireless NICs stopped working. Did you by any
chance "upgrade" your packages recently, say about the time everything stopped
working? Mine worked after the upgrade until the next reboot, then went away
forever. I tried to force a downgrade, but rpm was designed to work in one
direction only, there's no way to tell rpm or yum to roll back and rollback all
the dependencies at the same time.
I gave up, I removed NM totally and completely, and now do the whole setup with
a script run at boot time.
