[CentOS] CentOS 7 does not pick up my atheros wireless

For brevity, here is the output that you requested earlier. 

[@imaginationland ~]$ lspci -nn |grep -i eth 
08:05.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Qualcomm Atheros AR5212/AR5213 Wireless Network Adapter [168c:0013] (rev 01) 
0b:00.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller [10ec:8168] (rev 09) 

Here is the original output. 

[@imaginationland ~]$ lspci |grep AR 
08:05.0 Ethernet controller: Qualcomm Atheros AR5212/AR5213 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01) 

Not really sure what the hash provides us, when investigating what version of Atheros drivers we need, however, you are correct, the output was not exactly the same. 



Thanks for the assistance on this. 

Respectfully,

Now that you've got things going, this is a mute point but I just 
wanted to make one point clear for future searchers. Your output: 

lspci |grep AR 
08:05.0 Ethernet controller: Qualcomm Atheros AR5212/AR5213 Wireless 
Network Adapter (rev 01) 

is not the same as what I asked for. Look very closely. 'lspci -nn' 
displays the device IDs in the output, for example [8086:107c]. This 
information is important and can be used to identify the driver that 
supports the device.
