Hi

I had the same problem.
My solution was to add 'gateway_enable="YES"' to my /etc/rc.conf
I don't know if that is the right way.. but it works.
I also had trouble getting the ip address set at boot time and had
to make a script that did that.

I would like to hear about any other ways to do it.

Best regards Søren
