CentOS 7.0 works when installed but when you upgrade it to 7.2 the wifi 
device stops being recognised.

I'm going to do an install later today of 7.2 and see how it goes.

OK I installed 7.2 ( 7-1511 Development workstation )

Anaconda allowed me to configure the wifi and it got an IP address from 
the router. So the wifi is working.

Reboot and no wireless device recognised.

NetworkManager only offers a wired and network proxy options for 
configuration.

iwl2000/2030 are installed and rfkill says the wireless is neither 
hard nor soft blocked.

So any ideas.
