Perhaps I should clarify things just a bit sorry! :)
First off the DSL Modem is an INTERNAL intel pro/dsl 2100. The connection is being provided via Qwest (AKA US West) via phone line. The NIC is the interface serving my local LAN. So essentially the plan is: Provide Internet Access via the DSL interface and route that access to the xl0 (NIC) interface (hence the need for DHCP on that one). Seems simple enough. Just don't know for sure how to get that darn DSL interface to connect. I suspect though that BSD is not loading the interface. Perhaps it is not a support piece of hardware or, more likely, I am just not loading the proper drivers upon boot up. (I apologize for the seemingly ignorant additude here, but I just started learning Unix only a month ago.). This brings forth another question: Would the fact that my KERNEL has no ATM support be the cause here? I have a feeling that's what it is but as yet am just not sure!
Once again thank you for the many responses made! It is nice to know that there is a world out there that cares about each other, unlike that horrid Bill world...

Subject: Re: Connecting to My ISP via DSL
Hi
Why are you assigning an IP Address to the NIC and then starting DHCPSTART on the same interface? Your subnet for that IP address should be 255.255.255.0.
Does your ISP not give you a bit of cat 5 into your house? That would make your life much simpler.
