      No need to boot, it was a joke.

      But the real question was, how many public ip-addresses you have and how many you try to use in this setup?

        In that BOX i only used one, but in the ADSL router, we have 5 IP….

        i think the problems is in the box because i can doNAT using Untangle server to the same web server....i think it bug..what version do you used?

          Is there any reason to have routing dsl box between internet and pfsense? if not try to setup that in bridging mode. that ease up a little troubleshooting.
          atm i'm using really old version(built on Mon Jul 11 19:53:22 EDT 2011 ) waiting a good time to update. i had no problems with the older ones so i'm not waiting  problems when updating.

                  Does your modem get public ip with dhcp or do you have static ip-addresses

                          What if you change pppoe to the pfsense? and leave modem to be only mediaconverter(rj45 to rj11)

                            thats double NAT
                            you should make double port forward too …

                            make pppoe dialed from pfsense, modem just on bridge
                            so NAT only on pfsense box, thats easier to troubleshoot then

                              What do you mean double NAT? i don't understand? how can it be so complicated in PF box, because when using Untangle BOX it doing just fine with a simple port forward…  :'(

                                I can't do that because i've 5 IPs from that modem…if i removed it, that should be too complicated for me to used other IPs..

                                  I've got also 5 static ip's and uncontinous block, but in same subnet so i created carp vips for the "extra ip's" fifth one was given in installation point so there was no need to create fifth carp vip.

                                  Please read howto's those are really selfexplaining. And if don't want go todo that way, fine it's your decision, but then i'm not able to help you any further

                                            you don't have to keep public ip in your modem, unless you want to connect that from wan/lan

                                            I tried earlier to say, that put anything what modem does into pfsense: pppoe authentication etc. so your modem is only a dummy media converter(from network jack to modem jack)
