You should direct your questions related to OpenBSD to OpenBSD mailing lists....

However, this might help you.

If you prefer a forum, www.daemonforums.org has an active OpenBSD section.

Look your question. You said you want to use only static address but then you are looking for dhcp offer. Do you see how ridiculus is that statement. If the router is configured to work in the static mode then DHCP server is turned off. You have to
configure manually interface /etc/host.interface with IP address.
You also need manually to enter your DNS server.

Please, what is the big deal? It is a BSD for GOD's sake just a
little bit simpler than FreeBSD.

Most ridiculous is that OP problem is not OpenBSD specific. It could happen on any POSIX OS.

there is no ee in OpenBSD

Wat3rboy, in OpenBSD by default dhcpd server is not running , so probably your network configuration is wrong and you have to disable PXE booting

There is. It is just not in the base of the system but among the
packages.
