Subject:   link layer network problem when creating firewall

I am trying to setup my firewall to work with my cable modem.
I am trying to use the "simple" firewall configuration.

when I ping 24.93.35.0 or 24.93.35.64 I get "Time to live exceeded" 
errors and 100 % packet loss.  I also cannot ping internally (I have
a Win98 machine along with my FBSD box).  

The firewall/gateway/dns machine can ping itself fine with its 
unregistered 149.7.13.1 and its host name.

I think the problem is with my ifconfig in rc.conf...here's what I have:
ifconfig_ed0="inet 149.7.13.0	netmask 255.255.255.0"
ifconfig_pn0="inet 149.7.13.1	netmask 255.255.255.0"
ifconfig_pn1="inet 149.7.13.1	netmask 255.255.255.0"

If there's anything else I should include, please e-mail me back
and let me know.
