Looks like I figured it out (after 3 hours last night, and 4 hours tonight using the backup xml config files).

We had the MAC address spoof/cloning turned on. Looks like that isn't working properly since when I turned it off, everything works like a charm (no static ports needed).

I'm fairly sure that MAC address cloning was not a problem with any of my previous routers, so maybe this is a pfSense bug.

It's not possible that MAC cloning would work with some protocols and not others. If L2 is broken, nothing at all will work. Protocols at higher layers are irrelevant to layer 2. Something else you changed must have fixed it, unless it was an ISP issue and changing the MAC caused you to get a new IP not affected by whatever the problem might have been. That's not very likely.

MAC spoofing in pfSense 1.2 definitely works fine (with NICs that allow it, which is most all. Any that don't will not work at all).
