I'm pretty new to the Gentoo environment, but pretty experienced within Linux as a whole, but once I installed Gentoo(3.7.10-gentoo-r1), I have big problems with my internet connection(even though the LiveCD immediately caught it). I am using a Realtek RTL 8111E ethernet card but for some reason during the boot up screen, it's telling me it's loading an E1000 driver(for Intel?  ) and an R8169 driver. "ifconfig -a" only shows up with "enp5s0" and "lo" and I am clueless as to what went wrong. |

ryuh90,
Welcome to Gentoo.
enp5s0 is your ethernet interface. The right kernel modules must be loaded.
This is the new shiny naming convention.
If you have dhcpcd installed and enp5s0 is a wired interface, it should just work.
Does return any error messages?
If you had planned to use a static setup, swap eth0 for enp5s0 everywhere.
