Send the list the output of the following commands:
# ifconfig -a
# netstat -rn

With that info, we can probably help you out better.

ifconfig -a

em0: flags .......lot of data .....................
status: active

( I'm guessing this is the ethernet interface)

netstat -rn

routing tables:
Internet :
127.0.0.1 ..followed by some IPs, flags(UH), etc ..

Internet6
expire followed by some hex-values and flags

would this do or more specifics needed ?

Not really, no. You are supposed to show the *exact* output of
commands, if you expect more useful answers.

Now, I understand that without networking, it may be tricky to capture
the output and post it in an email message.

If you have a floppy disk you can use the floppy to capture the output
of these commands, i.e. by mounting it:

# cd /root
# mount -t msdosfs /dev/fd0 /mnt
# ifconfig -a > /mnt/ifconfig.txt
# netstat -rn > /mnt/netstat.txt
# umount /mnt

If you have a USB flash drive, you can mount that too (assuming it has a
single FAT partition):

( plug the USB flash disk into a USB socket )

# cd /root
# mount -t msdosfs /dev/da0s1 /mnt
# ifconfig -a > /mnt/ifconfig.txt
# netstat -rn > /mnt/netstat.txt
# umount /mnt

( unplug the flash disk )

It will help immensely if you post the *exact* output of the commands
mentioned by Christopher.
