Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello Everyone: I am trying to connect my FreeBSD 3.4-Release to cable modem but I seem to have a problem. My problem is that it work fine for about 7 minutes after I boot my computer and then all the sudden the connection just dies. I tried pinging freeBSD website and all the packets are lost. I am attaching the /etc/rc.conf, dmesg and /etc/dhclient.conf files. I think that I have followed the directions very carefully and I also have looked on the website of FreeBSD to see if I can find any similar problems but I couldn't find any. Thank you in advance.
