Check the routing.

Make sure

1. the interface configs are correct.
2. the next hop is correct
3. packets being sent to the firewall are using the correct MAC of the
firewall.
4. the rulebase, including rule0, is not killing the packets
5. the anti-spoofing is not killing the packets
6. the NAT rules, if any, are correctly handling packets.
7. if using NAT, the older versions of fw1 on windows needed static routes
8. packets begin sent from the firewall are using the correct MAC of the
next hop
9. try disabling the firewall and see if the packets are routed then.

for verifying the MAC addresses and traffic in and out of the box, look at
the arp table and use a sniffer of some kind.  if the data is actually being
sent to the firewall, there are only so many things that could be wrong.

good luck
