In Windows, do you have to use any software to connect, or is the connection made automatically. It appears you have your modem set up in routing mode, which means the modem most likely does the authentication to your ISP for you. I have a strong suspicion that you do not even need to use ppp on the FreeBSD box. If your modem contains the login info for the ISP, just set up your /etc/rc.conf file with the following: ifconfig_nic="DHCP" and then run: # /etc/netstart You *should* get your info from the router (modem) and should be up and surfing. If that doesn't work, provide more info on your setup, including the output of 'ipconfig' on the windows machine.
