I think dhcpcd is a service itself now. Bring all your net.* services down and then try those 2 steps:

rc-update --update
/etc/init.d/dhcpcd start

That's the easy mode, it should ring up all your interfaces and make one of thsoe default. You can limit it to a single interface using dhcpcd's config file if you want

Does eth0 report a carrier?
Try removing some options from /etc/dhcpcd.conf - like rapid_commit, and changing duid to clientid. The chances are your router doens't like these RFC compliant options.

Charles i dont have wpa and i wont simple as i have early dhcpcd to pick up ip adress from router is it posible all what you made it in your link i do it ...

Installed and start it dhcpcd more times also you made it in that link static post for static IP can i made something that i have it early to pick up from router ip not to enter this in dhcpcd.conf can make something as i have early in configuration /etc/conf.d/net ... "dhcp" ? its look like everything is messed with new updates on gentoo and i didnt understand what i need to do first with dhcpcd becouse on my server is internet down more than 10 days and need big help with this ...

Also i did and make reserv IP on router for this 192.168.1.5 what i need to do that start to pickup IP like it did on dhcpcd 5.5.4 without problems ?

Quote:
File/etc/dhcpcd.conf

Here is an example which configures a static address, routes and dns.

interface eth0
static ip_address=192.168.0.10/24
static routers=192.168.0.1
static domain_name_servers=192.168.0.1


Thanks a lot

Edited:

UberLord i will try when i arrive home and report it about this and also my router is Asus RT-N66U

Do i need to comment all others setting also or to leave it ?
