I used to hate NetworkMangler also, but I has vastly improved in F14.
Try: (as root)
1) chkconfig NetworkManager on
2) service NetworkManager start
3) right-click NetworkManager icon and select "Edit Connections..."
4) select the "Wired" tab
5) highlight the desired network device (e.g. System eth0)
6) click the "Edit" button
7) ensure "Connect automatically" (checkbox) is enabled
8) set up the device characteristics in the various other tabs
9) "Save" and "Close" out of the Edit Connections dialogues
10) Click the NetworkManager icon and (if necessary) select the device
to activate
The device should come up and be active.
If you absolutely don't want to use NetworkManager, ensure that the plain
old "network" service is active.
1) chkconfig network on
2) service network start
Hope this helps.
