Greetings everyone.
I just had to remove the base kernel, and install kernel-plus, then restart.
i.e. "yum -y remove kernel* && yum -y install kernel-plus*"
I now see the wireless-n card in ifconfig -a :
wlp8s5: flags=4098<BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
ether 00:1b:2f:37:02:46 txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet)
RX packets 0 bytes 0 (0.0 B)
RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0
TX packets 0 bytes 0 (0.0 B)
TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0
Thanks again.
Respectfully,
Martes G Wigglesworth

Greetings everyone.
I the output of lspci -nn | grep -i eth is identical to lspci |grep AR which has already been listed.
>From my understanding, I need ath5k, and I do in fact require centosplus kernel.
I have attempted to update to centosplus kernel by doing the following:
run vi /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo
and add the following to it
[centosplus]
enabled=1
includepkgs=kernel*
However, this only made kernel-plus packages avaialable, and none of which provide nl80211 or ath5k resources.
Can some current directions be listed on how I am supposed to get the centosplus kernel?
Respectfully,

I suspect the driver your device uses is one of those removed from
CentOS-7. To find out if this is the case, we need to know the device
ID pairing. Please show us the output from:
lspci -nn | grep -i eth
The driver could be ath5k. If so, you are in luck. The centosplus
kernel has that driver. But we will see..
