It sounds as if the system isn't getting a DHCP reply for some reason. If
I was having the problem I would use ifconfig -a to find out what state
the network was in, and would try service iptables stop service ip6tables
stop and setenforce 0 before trying again (disable IPv4 and IPv6 firewalls
and disable selinux which might each be interfering with the DHCP
process).
