What is not working ? you do have an IP from your provider. Is it your
default route not getting installed ?  Are you expecting nat to be working ?

After you are connected, what does
netstat -Wnra

show ?

You might also disable DHCP on re0 since its not getting an address, or
in dhclient.conf set it so it uses a default IP that does not have 0/8
