From the sound of it, you're trying to run before you can walk. Start by configuring the firewall with the basic, out-of-the-box settings. Just configure your internal network settings, you WAN IP and gateway. Check that your LAN hosts can access the internet and that the PFS can pick up updates/packages. Once you get to this point, THEN look at trying to customise your outbound traffic and inbound NAT. After you make each change, check once more to see if your firewall can still pick up updates, etc. The point where things go awry will be when you make the change which breaks your connection. Then it will be easier to find out the fault and address it.
