Hi any help greatly appreciated- I have never setup an internet connection with a cable modem and router = with freeBSD. I was wondering if maybe there was a skinny on it that = would help. The computer is seeing the network card as dc0. It reports = the ipaddress of the machine and the router. I can ping other computers = on the network, but when it comes to remote I can not. I looked at some = reference and it kind of led me to believe that I would have to custom = configure a kernel, which is no problem but want to make sure there is = not some easy network package that would eleviate the problem. The isp I = use which is comcast uses DHCP. I know I have a hunch I am forgetting = something simple. Again any help would be greatly appreciatted. Sorry = about the newbie question. Regards- Jim
