Let me try again, here is my situation and question with a little more detail.
Advertising
My local network (192.168.1.0) consists of two machine BSD1 (192.168.1.40) and
BSD2 (192.168.1.42). Both of these machines use the subnet mask 255.255.255.0
and gateway 192.168.1.254.
There is a third machine GATEWAY (192.168.1.254, ip address from isp) has two
nics and acts as the router.
All of these machine are connected to a switch locally.
When my internet connection goes down for whatever reason I
loose connections in my local network. For example, i can't ping 192.168.1.40
from 192.168.1.42. is there any explaination for this?
Not that I can think of. There's no reason I can imagine that your local
connectivity should suffer from Internet problems. Especially if you're
connecting via IP address (which rules out DNS problems).
Could you provide 'netstat -rn' and 'ifconfig' output from GATEWAY, please.
I don't see anything in the other information you provided that would
indicate any sort of misconfig on BSD2.
