IF all you see is inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 and no other information, especially not something similar to:HWaddr 00:24 7:1D:E1:74 inet addr 192.168.0.3 Bcast 192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 your router is refusing to allow connection. This is usually caused by not having the correct security settings for your router.
A very quick check to determine if this computer is capable of connecting to the internet is to disconnect the wired cable from your service provided modem to your router and plug the router end into the wired connector on your computer. If this does not immediately connect, your problem is in the computer (an ON-OFF switch , a bad wired adapter), (even built in ones have problems), or more likely the Centos Kernel does not recognize your adapter.
If you do not get a connection your Centos menu (bottom left corner) should have a way to access your network connection setup.... usually a software package similar to network manager. When you run this program, it should immediately show your network adapter and ask questions about your network, and assist you in connecting to your service.
If this does not work, remove the cable from your computer and plug it back into your router. This will restore networking to your system.

Merlin2: Both computers are booted. Co-Axel lan is connected to the Charter modem. Charter modem is connected to port(1) of the Actiontec modem/router. Computer(1) connected port(2) of the Actiontec, and Computer(2) is connected to port(3) of the Actiontec modem/router.

Just to be clear: Both centros and hp individually connect to the internet, However, the individual interface of each computer will not connect to the internet when both are connected to the Actiontec modem/router.
