Hi, My isp, RCN, issues dynamic addresses via DHCP and for some strange, unknown reason issues a gateway address on a different "network" than the machine address. Windows works fine with the arrangement, but, as I would expect, FreeBSD doesn't. In the past, I've called and be able to get this fixed, but with the latest tweak, I'm getting the royal run around of: Well, we only support windows and everyone I've talked to here has no idea of how to change it... Anyway, does is there someway to get FreeBSD working with this wacky arrangement? (my thoughts are not but I'm not a networking guru) And/Or does anyone have any thoughts on what to tells these tech reps on what to do to fix this problem? thanks for any and all input Jim To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
