connecting to my isp

[Brian H]

I am trying to switch my router from Linux Router Project to FBSD 4.7 because i think i can get more functionality with bsd :) I am running into a problem with getting it connected to my isp.

i have a cable connection and the way that the LRP connection is through dhcp. it uses the mac address as a means to authenticate. What turn on "DHCP" in /stand/sysinstall configure networking menu. It just hung there for a while and then returned no information from the dhcp server.

Is there anything i can do to just get connnected to my isp?
Thanks,
Brian
