I am able to get an IP from the DHCP server but fail to get any sort of internet connectivity. I am unable to ping or trace out. My requests would simply stall and eventually I would get a hostname lookup failure. However I figured it was a problem with the rules in my rc firewall. So when I disabled the natd options in my rc.conf (natd_enable and natd_interface was commented) and changed my firewall_type to open I was able to obtain an IP and ping out and have full internet connectivity. So I believe my dhclient.conf and dhclient-script is properly configured since I seem to have full functionality. Does anybody have any suggestions on what may be the problem?
