Look, this is wrong ... |

Your Broadcast should be: 192.168.0.255 |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Otherwise you're broadcasting packets beyond your LAN. |

This looks OK, except that the local receive and transmit counters show zero |

Aha! This is no longer correct if you are running the latest stable |
| 53 |
baselayout2 and openrc. Instead it should be: |
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
config_eth0="dhcp" |
| 56 |
|
| 57 |
no brackets! |

This is correct. |
| 72 |
|
| 73 |
Change the dhcp entry in your /etc/conf.d/net and run: |
| 74 |
|
| 75 |
/etc/init.d/net.eth0 restart |
| 76 |
|
