Yes, it's default router, like I said I was not in my work then I wrote by
myself this lines, like I didn't touch the defaultrouter line since the
install I guess it's correct, my fault. Yes, em0 is my public connection,
but it's not connected to the external network yet, that's why my default
router is 192.168.1.80 (that is my current gateway, connected with the
external world, and who I want to be replaced by this BSD box)

Hopefully you've just mis-remembered that netmask: it's non-contiguous.

My fault again. I messed up /27 with .224.


I think this is at the core or your issue.  Let's assume that a box on

The The machines is 192.168.1 aren't using my BSD box like it's default
gateway it, so it may be the problem? But, like I've said, this is the
second time I try to put the things to work, the first time I've set the
192.168.1 machines to use my bsd as default gatway and didn't work also. But
I gonna change it to test again. My machines in 192.168.2 are all using
192.168.2.90 as it gateway already.
