Say you read the first correspondence I need help.

I want to know what I do worng with the settings of vr1.
As I stated, vr1 is not connected to any Ethernet network. If you don't have it connected to a network, it won't communicate.

I need to set vr1 port as LAN and configure it as dhcp server which will give an ip address to my laptop behind it.
On 24 August, you started a thread in which described a network in which you had a series of devices. I posted a picture, but you never followed up to let me know if it was correct. I will reproduce it here:
Code:
[Router with DHCP server]--{wireless}--[Laptop]--{wired to vr0}--[ALIX6E1 with DHCP client]
If, what you want to have is something like this:
Code:
{Internet} -- [ALIX acting as your router]--[Laptop]
you will need to set up the ALIX platform as a router. Routers are also called gateways. Setup is described in FAQ 6.2.7. You will need two Ethernet networks, an outer network connected to your ISP's equipment, and an inner network for your laptop and any other computing equipment you may have.

It is possible that the address provided by your ISP's equipment is not an Internet address. Addresses in the RFC 1918 block are for private networks, and are not usable on the Internet without translation. Network Address Translation (NAT) is required for any device that does not have its own address on the internet. Using my second picture, if the ALIX box's outer network is on the Internet, then NAT is required for the inner network. If the ALIX box's outer network is a private network, NAT is not required.

In addition there is a USB port in the board that I want to connect to NETSTICK mobile communications.
Your earlier questions about this were answered in one of your previous threads. You chose not to follow up on the information provided.

I mean I also need to set some kind of protocol regulating communication when I'm connecting Through a dsl and i lose comunecation I will pass to the mobile communications.
I believe you are referring to a "fail over" network. That can be configured. But first, get your simple network operational. Walk before you run.

You might find it helpful to communicate in your native language, rather than English. Perhaps this list from www.openbsd.org/mail.html will help.
