First, get ipf out of the picture just to see if IP is working.  Use just
NAT and regular IP to see if simple IP is working.  ipf will just
complicate things until IP is working.

My bet is on an incorrect route.  Is a destination off tlp0 your default
route?  If the ping ain't coming from a 24.x.x.x address, then it's not going to
"prefer" the ne0 interface when responding, even though the response
originates from a 24.x.x.x address.

Do a 'netstat -nr' and see what the default route is.

That's my first guess, at least.

Hope this helps,
