Do you usually use DHCP from that machine? or do you have to use a fixed address? or is this the first time you have tried to put this machine on the net? Anyway, if you have to enter your own info, you cannot both do that and have DHCP turned on. You have to DHCP setting off then enter your fixed IP address, your Default Name server, your default gateway and your netmask as given by your Internet provider. From a quick glance, it looks like you are trying to use both DHCP and fixed IP addresses. In addition, it looks like the IPs you are trying to assign are private network IPs rather than public network addresses. You need to talk with whoever is providing you network service. Also, take a look at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_network http://www.duxcw.com/faq/network/privip.htm http://www.pku.edu.cn/academic/research/computer-center/tc/html/TC0305.html And probably some parts of the FreeBSD Handbook jerry jerry These are my infos.

I am not very knowledgeable about using DHCP and setting up routers (I am spoiled by being in a very highspeed net with fixed addresses for every system I need) so hopefully someone else will weigh in. Is your router functioning as a firewall too? Maybe you have to look in to passive ftp. jerry This is the status info from the router.

Re: Help how to set up networking for ftp install
I am trying to install freebsd over ftp but it always says, cannot resolve ftp.freebsd.org I told it to use dchp but it didnt do anything even though my router's dhcp server was on. it kept on saying dhcpdiscover on dc0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval .. Have you tried to unplug your modem from the power for 1 minute? Usually, this is an advise you'll get from Shaw support. And usually, it really helps.

Re: Help how to set up networking for ftp install
Is your router functioning as a firewall too? Maybe you have to look in to passive ftp. But it isnt getting to the ftp part it is not even getting the infos from the dhcp server. Does the network options screen fill in the values automatically? No it is all blank. So I tried filling it in but it didnt work. Do you try IPv6 configuration? I tried it but it didnt do anything I am sure I am not useing ipv6. Have you tried to unplug your modem from the power for 1 minute? Usually, this is an advise you'll get from Shaw support. And usually, it really helps. I tried that but it didnt help. Be a better pen pal. Text or chat with friends inside Yahoo! Mail.
