Maybe a bad or not wired correctly cable(s) .
Might try going back & setting things up accordingly & bring along
another system running linux , ping -anything- in the same network
& see if the other linux box even see's the traffic from the
Firewall .
Fyi, I have had a badly crimped rj45 end give me no ends of
problems . Including on & off again connections . I have
had the same thing show that the system I was testing wasn't
receving any traffic BUT was sending it , one of the receive
pairs wasn't even in the rj45 connector (my bad) , the hub
even showed 'activity' .
