I will guess that router IP is 192.168.1.1.

Not familiar with IPFW, although it does look as if you might
be blocking traffic from the router.

Those would seem to drop all traffic from the router, although it
would allow external packets that are being routed.

I'm not clear on what those are supposed to do. On my reading, you
already blocked those packets with the "quick" option, so they won't
reach down this far in your rules. Or do you have two interfaces, so
that the early rules only block on the wrong interface and the rules
immediately above accept on the correct interface.

Either way, you haven't given enough info for people to be able to
help.
