Just fixed it:
I had the local IP as an alias and public IP as the primary IP.
I switched this and things are okay again.

This won't bug me anymore once I finish my routing. But Im not sure this  
is correct behavior.

rc.conf before:
ifconfig_re0="inet --public--/29"
ifconfig_re0_alias0="inet --local--/24"
rc.conf after:
ifconfig_re0="inet --local--/24"
ifconfig_re0_alias0="inet --public--/29"

Or is my configuration wrong?

Thanks,
Vasek
