It says, no dhcpoffers received.. The computer is wired to a dlink di624 router acting as a dhcp server. The server works with windows.. Can you provide a tcpdump from another machine on the network to see if the DHCP requests are completely ignored? What is the ethernet card? It is a cnet pro200wl with a davicom dm9102a chipset. I installed freebsd from a cd and then ran dhclient and tcpdump kept on saying, ...ip 0.0.0.0.bootpc > 255.255.255.255.bootps: bootp/dhcp, request from..(oui unknown), length: 300 -Kip Kip, Can you run wireshark, ethereal or tcpdump from another computer in the LAN? It should see the broadcast. I know you said it works under windows, but do you have any MAC filtering going on at the dlink end? What version of FreeBSD are you working with? Does the dlink have a log that would show it's DHCP activity? thx References 1. mailto:kip.macy@gmail.com 2. mailto:kevcormier@yahoo.com
