It looks like no DHCP server is responding to it.
Is there supposed to be a DHCP server listening to you?
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

Does the network options screen fill in the values automatically?
Do you try IPv6 configuration?

That helps make things more clear.

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.

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.

 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.

I tried that but it didnt help.
