For whatever reason, this beta firmware fixed all problems caused when I upgraded to 1.12:

DHCP Wan connection to dsl modem now works
Port forwarding appears to function correctly
SPI allows applications to work properly

Sounds promising.  We shall see if the PS3 can no go into remote start mode without turning itself on.
