OK, you have configured your external interface with a static ip, and from the above line it appears to be wrong. The above ip is? your assigned ip? or default router? or? Most ISP assign ip dynamically. Try running this command: # dhclient rl0 (rl0 is your external interface right?). This should configure your external interface according to the ISP. If things works, then edit your rc.conf, set ifconfig_rl0="DHCP" and remove the "defaultrouter" line. You can tweak dhclient by editing /etc/dhclient.conf Your ISP should provide you with the following information if you are assigned a static ip: your ip and netmask default router ip (sometimes default gateway) list of dns servers ignoring the dns-servers, it would draw a better picture of your network if you recreate your diagram attaching the assigned ip to each interface: INTERNET | | ISP |default router: ip xx.xx.xx.xx | | ADSLmodem | | |rl0: ip xx.xx.xx.xx (DHCP?) FBSD |sis0: ip 192.168.0.xx (static) | MYNETWORK You may experience problems using your box as a router if the external ip is assigned dynamically.
