Looks like I figured it out (after 3 hours last night, and 4 hours

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).
