Let me try again, here is my situation and question with a little more detail.
My local network (192.168.1.0) consists of two machine BSD1 (192.168.1.40) and
BSD2 (192.168.1.42). Both of these machines use the subnet mask 255.255.255.0
and gateway 192.168.1.254.
There is a third machine GATEWAY (192.168.1.254, ip address from isp) has two
nics and acts as the router.
All of these machine are connected to a switch locally.
When my internet connection goes down for whatever reason I
loose connections in my local network. For example, i can't ping 192.168.1.40
from 192.168.1.42. is there any explaination for this?
Not that I can think of. There's no reason I can imagine that your local
connectivity should suffer from Internet problems. Especially if you're
connecting via IP address (which rules out DNS problems).
Could you provide 'netstat -rn' and 'ifconfig' output from GATEWAY, please.
I don't see anything in the other information you provided that would
indicate any sort of misconfig on BSD2.
