You get this if the ip of the gateway is not available. Take a look of the
value of gateway in the rc.conf. If this is at example gateway="default gw
192.168.1.1" and ROUTES=(gateway) than try to see what is the output of:

route add default gw 192.168.1.1

I see that you post a [BUSY] which seems that you use dhcp and so another
reason could be that the other dhcp server offers a wrong or no ip of the
nameserver.

Normaly the combination of etho="dhcp" and ROUTES=(!gateway) in the rc.conf
should works for such a case.

Personaly i must say that this SIOCADDRT messages be not so funny and a search
in the web shows too much examples.-)

Good luck, Attila
