I had a nifty setup with an old computer running as my FreeBSD file and print

I just built a screaming machine with X58i motherboard, i7 CPU and 12 GB RAM.
But alas, besides problems with loading Windows on it I seemed to have hit a

The motherboard has two built-in Gigabyte Ethernet ports which

other previous messages.
The bottome line is I got it to work. It was a problem with my NATD setup on
the server inside the LAN which is running as AP for the wireless computers in
my house. It's all working grea.
Okay bad news.
There were just too many problems with this setup. I recall a few weeks ago
building an 8.0 server and it had troubles as well. So I reinstalled
7.2-RELEASE on this server and here's what happened:
The laptop got an IP address and connected not instantly but much quicker than
Okay I have finally decided to scrap my old D-Link wireless router in favor of
my FreeBSD-8.0 server with a wireless NIC ral0. I have thus far got the NIC to
come up and work as an access point. I can connect to this AP with my laptop
computer via wireless. I'm running dhcpd on the FreeBSD
