I just set machine with IPFW and NAT and came across a problem like you have. Just make sure your firewall/gateway machine, can ping and traceroute IPs and domains on the net. Set your LAN machines to use your private IP (192.168.1.2) as the gateway and set the machines to use your ISP's DNS. That made everything work for me.... Hope that works for you.....
