Tim, ok I see the reason why I didn't find it. Being that Apple changed the menus a great deal, the directions you provided are correct. However, since I use Verizon's ADSL service, I have to use PPPOE and you have to changed that to eathr net to enable or disable dhcp. I suspect it was setup this way because as far as I know you can only have dhcp when using PPPOE or that may be an industry standard way of implementing PPPOE with providers who use that.
