I was upgrading my gnome from 2.26 to 2.28 via
# portupgrade -PR gnome2
and I added IPv6 support in between. I did not get the whole upgrade done yet due to stale dependcies. After I rebooted the system, I found that I did not have connection to the Internet as I had before. I executed # ifconfig
and found status active but no connection on ping. I need help to get my connection back. I tried reading the man pages of ifconfig and also did a destroy and create but that did not help.
