Hi Keith,
Congrats on getting up and running. (And, glad to hear you were
able to fix your mouse issues.)
'man ifconfig', 'man rc.conf'...
As this is newbies, I'm not allowed to offer any real technical advice.
If you continue to have problems, consider writing -questions for
further help.
To note, my rc.conf contains the line:
ifconfig_xl0="DHCP"
where xl0 is the name of the interface (NIC).
Regards,
Clayton
