Hello, The FreeBSD machine is simply passing traffice for the time being, no ipfw, no NAT. I know the name, ut not much mre about the DSL modem I was given.It's an ARESCOM800, and the service is **wince** MSN DSL. The modem has a very simple html display that gives me the very basics; modem IP (192.168.1.1), netmask (255.255.255.252) and external IP. rl0 is the modem-facing interface (external) on a FreeBSD 4.9 "gateway". de0 is the LAN-facing (internal) interface on the same machine. /etc/rc.conf says: ifconfig_rl0="DHCP" ifconfig_de0="inet 10.0.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0" gateway_enable="YES" defaultrouter="192.168.1.1" I can reach the outside world from both intrefaces on the gateway. rl0 is configured thusly (automatically via DHCP): inet 192.168.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.252, with a default gateway of 192.168.1.1. Clients are configured as follows: inet 10.0.0.x netmask 255.255.255.0 defaultrouter 10.0.0.1 >From a client machine on the 10.0.0.0 network, I can ping both de0 and rl0 on the gateway, but I cannot get any traffic past rl0 to the cable modem from the LAN client. That is where my minimal understanding of routing ends. I do not know why I cannot pass traffic to the modem and out. I hope this makes my problem clearer, thanks for the help. After following up on the above reply, I find that I cannot ping out from the LAN interface (de0, 10.0.0.1). Hmmm, and again, no ipfw or NAT on the FreeBSD firewall.
