Don't know if it's any help, but here's what ifconfig shows on my 6.2 desktop, which has a similar ethernet interface (RTL8168C/8111C) and static IP:
Code:
re0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 lladdr xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx index 1 priority 0 llprio 3 groups: egress media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX full-duplex,rxpause,txpause) status: active inet 192.168.x.x netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.x.255 |

Could you need to authenticate?

Another thought, if your ISP supports a dhcp connection you can cross-check the gateway and DNS mask. If you get a dhcp connection, the values will be in the ifconfig output.

The state shows "no carrier" - which is a report from the PHY indicating a disconnected Ethernet cable.
Your PHY is an RTL8251, using the rgephy(4) driver. This is a supported hardware component, and has been used successfully with OpenBSD by other users, including gkbsd. |

And, while I'm here, I notice the IP address assigned is an RFC 1918 private address. This address is not on the Internet. A NAT router must be deployed to communicate with the Internet when using that address.

The most likely cause is a bad RJ45 cable connector on one or the other cable-end. They fail.
The second most likely cause is a disconnected cable. The third most likely cause is a broken cable. The fourth most likely cause is a damaged PHY at either end of the connection. |

What is PHY ? This is the ifconfig from Ubuntu Code:
$ ifconfig enp2s0: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 172.16.197.126 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 172.16.197.255 inet6 fe80::a4ab:c902:f5cd:e648 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x20<link> ether 60:45:cb:87:53:a5 txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet) RX packets 32170 bytes 5263469 (5.2 MB) RX errors 0 dropped 23417 overruns 0 frame 0 TX packets 5771 bytes 1439316 (1.4 MB) TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0 Code:

You could, if you were inclined to do so, report this problem to the OpenBSD Project.
