Thanks, tried it and still no luck. Cant ping either localhost or 127.0.0.1. Perhaps i should post some details from my boot record, cos I do notice after the dhcp, there are network unreachable messages, but i cannot find where this boot log is stored... On a side not, these problems started when i began to use gnome (2.12.13). Maybe unrelated but i never had these problems using kde, and the boot message of network unreachable seem to have happened at this time too.

Your NIC is not configured correctly.

Can you post the the output of the ifconfig command. Also, there should be a line in rc.conf that begins with ifconfig_... Post that line also.


Here is the complete output of ifconfig:

nathaniel# ifconfig
fwe0: flags=108943<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST,NEEDSGIANT> mtu 1500
        options=8<VLAN_MTU>
        inet6 fe80::11:6ff:fe99:d9eb%fwe0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1
        ether 02:11:06:99:d9:eb
        ch 1 dma 0

        options=9<RXCSUM,VLAN_MTU>

and here is my full rc.conf:
