This is my situation. I have DHCP connection and this has been working fine without any problem since FBSD 2.7-R. My current version of FBSD is 4.2-R. Even when I made a clean installation from the scratch, the box immediately recognized the NIC and connect to the FTP. A few weeks ago, the cable modem was out of order and my ISP changed it from Motorola to Samsung. Since then my FBSD box can't connect to the net. My FBSD box well recognizes NIC and I hadn't changed any cofiguration. After just changing the modem, the new modem doesn't work with my FBSD but win9x box. Do you have any idea what goes wrong? Any help or tip would be really appreciated. Thanks. -youlgok To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
