Hello, I'm using a belkin wireless router for my home network, and I had
DHCP enabled on the belkin routher, with this all I needed was to put
this line on my /etc/rc.conf file: ifconfig_fxp0=DHCP and I was able
to browse the internet without any problems now I decided to disable
DHCP on my
ifconfig_fxp0=inet 192.168.2.72
Try something like
ifconfig_fxp0=inet 192.168.2.72 netmask 255.255.255.0
defaultrouter=192.168.2.1 # ip of your router

I'm using FBSD4.8 stable, my belkin router uses 192.168.2.1, subnet mask
is 255.255.255.0 and the gateway is also 192.168.2.1.
Here's how my rc.conf looks like now:
hostname=ecerejo.Belkin
ifconfig_fxp0=inet 192.168.2.72
ifconfig_fxp0=inet 192.168.2.72/24
defaultrouter=192.168.2.1
Ok thanks. I actually figured it out after I sent question but used
/stand/sysinstall to cinfigure my network interface and ended up with
these two settings in my rc.conf:
ifconfig_fxp0=inet 192.168.2.72 netmask 255.255.255.0
what's the diference between ifconfig_fxp0=inet 192.168.2.72/24 and
ifconfig_fxp0=inet 192.168.2.72 netmask 255.255.255.0?
Two different ways of saying the same thing. I believe the former is
CIDR notation.

Its easier to type /24 than 255.255.255.0. The /24 says set first 24
bits of netmask. It doesn't work with
