Hello, I signed up for DSL service from Telocity, which have me use DHCP to get my IP, netmask, nameservers, etc.. When ever Telocity has networking trouble (couple times a week) I usually have to reboot my FBSD box (4.2-STABLE) inorder to get connectivity from my Win98 boxes again. I'm using my FBSD box as a gatway/firewall/natd server to provide service and protection to the Windows box behind it. I must have configured something wrong, because you really shouldn't have to reboot a BSD box that often. (or at all, besides a new kernel) Also, when telocity comes back on line I'm able to log into the FBSD box (from console) and search the web, etc.. The only thing that dosen't work is the Win98 machine. This can be solved by rebooting the FBSD box, followed by rebooting the 98 box. A reboot of the 98 box alone dosen't solve this problem.
