I still have question. how do I set the internal network routing? The computers in internal network can share the cable modem Assume: Freebsd has 2 network cards: One is DHCP to have IP address as your mention, the rest is fixed IP as 192.168.0.1 internal network is 192.168.0.0 tks again regards Peter "Jonathan M.
