Ok, so your network cards are detected and enabled. Your wireless card is up, wired down because no cable is connected. What exactly is the problem?

Artix can't see any wired connection. There are wireless, but no any wired connection available.
 Cable is connected.

Device has no carrier (info from networkmanager).

 Cable is connected.

What are you connecting too as well, because if it's a local network with no dhcp you might have to manually configure stuff like IP addresses, DNS and so on. If that was the case, and also if it wasn't the case, to see if the port is working generally, you might try installing wireshark-cli and adding yourself to the wireshark group (I think there's something like that you need to do anyway :D ) then you can use tshark -i enpxxx to see if there's any activity on that ethernet line, and the output might help with IP addresses if you were making a manual connection. You can listen with wireshark if the port is up like you had here "enp7s0: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP>" even if there is no actual configured connection to anything, and with most network connections there would be some traffic to log although that isn't guaranteed. (That's only an additional suggestion to nous's which are also good ideas)

Probably my ethernet card is not functioning. No lights, nothing.

The lights won't come on unless you are connected to something that's working, with a good cable.
