depending on your dsl provider setup is different. Some ISP's use pppoe and
others just simple dhcp client, some require you to register the mac address
with them. To give you any pointers I would need to know how your isp
requires you to connect.

I'm afraid we will need more detail than that. Is this a PPPoE modem or
is it a DSL router? How is it connected to the machine? Do you wish to
setup NAT?

Is the net.inet.ip.forwarding sysctl set to 1?
(gateway_enable="YES" in /etc/rc.conf to set on boot)
