I am converting from DSL to RoadRunner this week and wondering if
there is anything special I need to do to my pf.conf for passing
DHCP into my NIC?

I think all you'll need is:

pass in quick on $ext_if proto udp from any port 67 to any port 68
keep state


When I used DHCP with PF, I found that it just worked without any rules
