At least now, we know that Crypto333 is using 5.6-release on the i386 architecture.

The NIC re0 uses the re(4) driver - as the NIC has one if its matching Realtek chipsets. At this time, all we know is that there is no responding DHCP server connected to this particular NIC. This could be because the network has no DHCP server, or, it could be because the network is not physically connected (or connected properly). An Ethernet cable could be connected to a different NIC, for example.

The output of ifconfig(8), as Carpetsmoker recommends, will at least tell us whether there is a working Ethernet connected to this particular NIC.

No network connection = no installation of packages from the network, or anything else from the network. This is why nano cannot be installed.
