I was working on 0.90a version, and since version 0.62.3 the DHCP on my wan was working fine.
Today I upgraded to a 0.93 version, which I downloaded from a "sullrich" link (I know this is not an official release). Now, my dhcp wan doesn’t work, it assign an IP address for about 20 secs. And then it release it, and re-assign it after 20 or 30 secs. I try using a static IP on my wan interface, since my ISP uses a DHCP server but it always assigns me the same public IP (that’s funny), but it works almost the same way. I can ping for about 10 times, then the connections drops, then again it restore my connection and I can ping again. This is odd. I decided to downgrade to 0.90a, and the wan DHCP client it's working fine again. I'm sorry for hijacking another post, I just intended to help, maybe this is a bug :) Thanks again for all your support, we are more than satisfied with your outstanding job!

DHCP generally "just works". I would verify that your hardware is FreeBSD friendly at this point as it can be very picky. Scott On 11/13/05, Ulrik S.
