bizarre. Looking through that, it would appear you DO have an internet connection. Have you tried firefox etc? My only guess is that your access point is blocking something as what you've shown me seems to indicate all good.

Subject: Problem with CentOS 6 configuring network
I have tried to install CentOS 6 on an older system. When I get to the prompt screen for the hostname of the computer there is a configure network button at the bottom of the screen which is non selectable. After filling in the hostname for the machine the configure network button is still unelectable. Without being able to select the button I continued and completed the installation of the CentOS 6 on the system, but when done with installation I have no internet connection.
I see the network connection icon in the upper right hand corner of the status bar in Gnome, and when I right click edit connections, I see Auto eth0 in the connections screen last used is never. When I highlight it and click edit I can see a MAC address listed. in IPv4 and in IPv6 method is set to Automatic (DHCP). Connect Automatically box is checked and it is available to all users. Still no internet connection
ifconfig gives the following info:
eth0
Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr: 00:13:20:BF:DA:56
inet addr:192.168.0.103 Bcast:192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

resolve.conf has the following:
# Generated by NetworkManager
nameserver 192.168.0.1
(the IP address listed in resolve.conf is my router's gateway address)
There was no ifcfg-eth0 file created in /etc/sysconfig/netwroking/devices so I created one and put the following in it:
DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=none
HWADDR=00:13:20:BF:DA:56
ONBOOT=yes
TYPE=Ethernet
USERCTL=no
IPV6INIT=no
PEERDNS=yes
NETMASK=255.2555.255.0
IPADDR=192.168.0.10
GATEWAY=192.168.0.1
--------
after this I have brought eth0 down and back up using if down eth0 and ifup eth0
I get an OK on the following:
Shutting down loopback interface:
Bringing up loopback interface:
Bringing up interface Auto_eth0: Active connection state: activating
Active connection path: /org/freedesktop/NetwokManager/ActiveConnection/2 state: activated
Connection activated
Still no internet connection. Please help, Thanks
