    Hello,
    I have the problem with my ISP and network settings received from ISP DHCP
    server.

    with dhcpclient I get:
    IP address for interface xl0: 213.x.y.77 netmask 255.255.255.252
    default gateway: 213.x.y.77

    Yes, IP address on interface and gateway are the same.
    The interesting part is that with these settings on Windows and Linux I have
    access to Internet. But FreeBSD refuse to work. What must be done to have
    access on FreeBSD v5.4.

    I found that the router IP address is 192.168.1.1 and if I up manually
    xl0 alias 192.168.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.252,
    change default gateway to 192.168.1.1 and make ipnat
    map xl0 192.168.1.2/32 -> 217.x.y.77/32
    freebsd box now can use Internet.

    But I want use DHCPclient for xl0, because ISP offten change network settings.
    Does anyone known the solution for this problem.

    Thanks,

    Todor Dragnev
