With pci cards like the ones with the fxp driver, don't do anything.  You
don't need to add a second driver (that might even by your problem)
because most pci drivers grow automagicaly.

Unfortunatly, I can't help much here.  You'll probably want to use natd to
do address translation (masquerading).  Other then that, it shoudl
basicaly work just like before.  If you want dynamic addresses for your
windows box (or mabey for visitor's laptops) then just install the
net/isc-dhcp2 port.  The examples in the dhcpd manpage should get you
started.
