I do not think I should blame HUB or ADSL modem... What is the physical setup? Just to be sure, I am guessing the FreeBSD machine has two interfaces. One is in the hub and one in the ADSL modem. And I assume the OpenBSD and Win2k machines are both on the internal net? Just for future reference, which machine is which in the list of IPs above? Can the gateway machine itself use the Internet connection? What is the output of, # ifconfig # arp -an # netstat -rn # ipfw show On the gateway? > > I have a small problem.
