 Dear FreeBSD community,
 
 Bug 170279 (default TTL of dhcp client is 16) is affecting all
 customers of the main fiber provider in Norway (Altibox). Their DHCP
 server is quite further than 16 hops away from the main population in
 Norway (eastern part).
 
 Using FreeBSD as a firewall is therefore not possible, unless you
 change the code by hand and recompile yourself.
 
 I would highly appreciate if the developers would prioritize fixing
 this bug (http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=170279).
 
 Kind regards, Med vennlig hilsen, Met vriendelijke groet,
 Thomas Mathiesen
