Thanks. :-) As indicated in previous reply, it does appear NetworkManager
receives the signal.  HOWEVER, thanks to Tom I'm looking at progress messages
at both available consoles, and here's what's being said:

INFO   : going to pick interface
ERROR  : iBFT deosn't couldn't provide valid NIC MAC address
INFO   : only have one network device: wlan0

...which, while kind of an obscure message, at least tells me why I've never
yet seen the DSL connection light come on with CentOS netinstall.  I've done
_two_ netinstalls of Debian on this machine, using eth0, but CentOS seems
dissatisfied with it for some reason and won't use it.

That seems to mean I'll have to go back to Debian. (?)
