Re: how to config the network?(Solved)
well, show us your rc.conf for a start and explain how your internet connection is set up would help

you need to enable the route in ROUTES=()... remove the ! from it

Re: how to config the network?(Solved)
yeah! I solved the problem.
I simply changed the broadcast to 192.168.132.1(formally 192.168.132.254 which is the same as gateway) and it worked
when i type route command it shows the right gateway info
