put following lines into your /etc/sysconfig

	network_interfaces="le0 le1 lo0"

	ifconfig_le0="inet 10.10.10.1 netmask 255.255.255.0"
	ifconfig_le1="inet 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0"
	ifconfig_lo0="inet localhost"

	defaultrouter="192.168.1.2"

reboot your potential FreeBSD router.
Type -c at the startup to check (and possibly correct) irq's and I/O 
settings.
The FreeBSD installer should make 
  "routed -q" 
run automaticaly after reboot. If not - do it yourself 

It should help
