Router (isp give me the device), but i currently have other operating
system, e.g. FreeBSD, OpenBSD and GNU/Linux, the connection to install
software is normal (using pkg_add or another package manager), but
with NetBSD the connection is dropping if i don't use inmediatly
pkg_add,  but if i use inmediately is normal, it was my question my
friends.

Not special firewall is only router...

I love NetBSD i will continue to use the operating system! regards!
