Yeah, the arp cache is the problem, thanks for nailing that one for me. However, the ipfw rule you supplied doesn't seem to want to work for me... I think for the time being I'll just run a cron job every 15 minutes or so that clears the arp cache completely. Thanks again for your help!! I really appreciate it!

I'm guessing your arp cache is timing out.
