I think you got me wrong. The client works fine. The only problem is, i
cant use remote access on it because i dont know what it's IP address is.
That's why i was asking if there was a way to guess what the next IP
address would be.

thanks again.

In /etc/rc.conf:

	ifconfig_xl0="DHCP"

Change the xl0 to your NIC interface...
