    I power cycled it and it didn't help.  It's one of those DSL

    do anything special to get the device to at least be able to ping
    the router itself let alone contact stuff on the internet.

    I actually have two gateways running pfsense on this thing just
    fine.  They are both able to ping the router and internet.  I
    never had to set up MAC spoofing or power cycle my modem/router to
    get them to work.

    I even tried putting the soekris box on a small lan and having it
    try and ping a PC and it couldn't even do that.  I'm not seeing
    any errors when I boot the box or in the logs.

Is there anything else I can look into?

Make sure your interfaces are assigned correctly? Try assigning WAN to a new interface to rule out hardware issues.

I tried assigning the WAN to a new interface and that didn't work either. I even unplugged and plugged the cable and checked the status of the link in the interface status page just to see if Pfsense was "looking" at the right port. It sensed whether or not the cable was plugged on whatever port I had set up as the WAN at the time. I hope that makes sense. The funny thing is that I actually have two of these soekris boards (one that I just bought and another that I've had for about a year) and I have the same problem on both of them. So, I really don't think it's a hardware issue.
