If the FreeBSD box is the router, have a look on this:
http://www.erudition.net/freebsd/NAT-HOWTO

If not, please understand, that my crystal ball device is in the washer,
so I cannot find out your complete network configuration here.

The ipfw configuration does not tell me your topology and addressing.
But those two lines are suspicous:

| "$IPFW" add 10 set 1 drop log all from me to any in recv eth0
| "$IPFW" add 20 set 1 drop log all from 192.168.1.0/24 to any in recv eth0

You could read this one, though:
