I tried with windows first: configured the machine with the IP as per the instructions and set the proper gateway. It worked. I then tried to do the same with FreeBSD, but it is not working. I thought maybe it was PPPoE. Wrote to the ISP and they wrote back saying ISP->No. Its straight ethernet. Just plug in your modem, and configure IP ISP->address you were given to your ethernet interface. ISP->ifconfig xx0 66.114.xx.xx netmask 255.255.255.0 The relevant lines in rc.conf are: ifconfig_fxp0="inet 192.168.10.6 netmask 255.255.255.0" ifconfig_ed0="inet 66.114.65.147 netmask 255.255.255.0" defaultrouter="66.114.65.1" The output of netstat -nr is: Internet: Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Netif Expire default 66.114.65.1 UGSc 2 0 ed0 66.114.65/24 link#2 UC 4 0 ed0 => 66.114.65.1 0:d0:6:47:d0:1c UHLW 2 2 ed0 999 66.114.65.147 0:80:ad:c8:a9:e3 UHLW 0 4 lo0 66.114.65.255 ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff UHLWb 3 47 ed0 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UH 1 28 lo0 192.168.10 link#1 UC 3 0 fxp0 => 192.168.10.4 0:a0:24:e9:bb:18 UHLW 2 330 fxp0 864 192.168.10.5 0:2:b3:11:89:fe UHLW 1 10 fxp0 1097 192.168.10.255 ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff UHLWb 1 72 fxp0 In particular I did man netstat for the flags on this line: 66.114.65.1 0:d0:6:47:d0:1c UHLW 2 2 ed0 999 H RTF_HOST Host entry (net otherwise) L RTF_LLINFO Valid protocol to link address translation U RTF_UP Route usable W RTF_WASCLONED Route was generated as a result of cloning I am not all that familiar with netstat, but those flags seem like freebsd can see the default gateway, yet I am unable to ping it or connect to anything through it.
