Thanks all.  Got another question.  The onboard NICS both appear to be down.  
I've tried: 
I tried a different ethernet cable 
  The other ports on the router work 
  The mac address is filtered through 
  I booted with an identical (non raid-1) drive 
  Triple checked my bios 
  The light on the on-board NIC is green for both on-board NICS when plugged into 
  Tried DHCP 
  Assigned my own IPv4 address and DNS
