I saw this on a box of mine once.  It was because I had ipfw/natd set up incorrectly.  Try these commands to see if it clears the problem up:

/sbin/ipfw -f flush
/sbin/ipfw add divert natd all from any to any via fxp0 (your device should go there)
/sbin/ipfw add pass all from any to any

If everything works after doing this, you might check to see what your firewall_flags variable is set to in /etc/rc.conf.
