If I enter the alias via the command line manually, it is immediately resolved. It will assign the alias on a soft boot.
Also, I am still getting the dhclient and last message errors. I could not look at them by using the tips given earlier in this thread, but it would be nice to know why I am getting these errors.

I think the modem acts almost as a network bridge. The results you are looking for are:
Note: the ifconfig was run from Slackware and not NetBSD (I don't have my 4.0 setup completely setup yet). The only differences are device names and NetBSD has an additional device fwiw0 (I think that is the correct name) set to address 0.0.0.0

Note that the actual IP address of both my IP and the default gateway change dynamically upon each DHCP request.
