From your website: xl1: flags=8843 mtu 1500 media: Ethernet autoselect (10baseT) status: active inet 66.114.152.128 netmask 0xfffff800 broadcast 66.114.159.255 inet6 fe80::250:daff:febc:7ecf%xl1 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2 Your ifconfig for xl1 is totally buggered. At the top of the page you say your ip block is 66.114.152.128/255.255.248.0. If that's the case, then you have you have your IP address set to the network address; that's not going to work. Also, your netmask is set to 0xfffff800, that's a subnet mask of 255.255.248.0, which is wrong too, needless to say.
