PfSense + ubiquity

I got it working.

I assigned the SFP+ port as my LAN and assigned it the 10.x.x.x/16 network.
Then I had to call COX and list the WAN Mac address with them. Upon doing
so I was able to reach external sites, and all downstream devices started
coming alive!

Thanks for all the suggestions and help!

Thanks,
Alexander
