Hi Jonahtan

Many tks for your prompt reply.
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
