I've been using 1.2.3 snapshots on my pfSense router at home, and at customer sites, from RC1 through RC3 (and the release images that are pending right now even) and I haven't had any trouble, either on AT&T DSL or Verizon DSL both using PPPoE. Are you sure that your DSL link is solid and noise-free? I have seen cases where routers would sign on but could not pass traffic and it turned out to be a weak DSL signal. Does this same line work with any other router? As Ermal said, posting the full log might help, even if you don't see anything out of the ordinary. Some other info that would be helpful would be the output of "ifconfig -a" and "netstat -rn" while connected. Perhaps also a traceroute to the next hop and DNS servers.
