maybe i will have to seek local expert, but it looks configured to me:
from cpanel --system-- devmgr-- network adapter
Intel(R) 100+ Management Adapter
properties
devicestatus:
Device is working properly
device usage:
exists inall hardware profiles
I think this is saying the nic is configured
I may have an odd ball setup because of vmware:
here is a repeat of how I answered another respondent
regarding how i tried to setup the ipnumber, gw, netmask etc:

do you agree that the nic does look like it is configured?
if so, any further advice?
thanks
