I just tested this again and it is working for me. Maybe a reinstall? Modloader 
output if that doesn't work.

so i reinstalled and retested, looks like it's just a visual bug, it's not 
actually destroying my items and they do transfer to the other side, however 
when they hit the transport pipe they also turn around but don't actually come 
out on this side. I'll retest again after builcraft gets updated to 2.2.3, it 
may be part of that. Thanks for the reply !

Suddenly experiencing this problem with REV 26. Chunks don't stay loaded far 
away in SMP. If two ppl are on the server, and one tp pipe is far away, it 
doesn't show as connected pipe. If one player walks over to the one far away, 
it all gets connected.

Having the same issue as well, same mods as original poster except 2.2.4 
buildcraft and rev26 additional pipes (yes I know the mod was made for 2.2.3, 
but I figure additional information might help).

In our case on the server its two people myself and one other, originally had 
long waterproof and power pipes going from a generator plant in a village down 
to a lava ravine at bedrock, on installing the mod replaced all those with a 
teleport power pipe and liquid pipes, and it did pump up lava just fine (all 
set to channel 1, receive on the tank teleport pipe)

Then I went out to find oil, setup a pump on a geyser and a power tp pipe and 
liquid tp pipes on that (all set to channel 2, receive on the power pipe) with 
the oil tank tp pipe receive on channel 2, that worked for a bit, but by the 
time I found another geyser and setup the same setup (also on channel 2) I 
noticed it said there were only connected pipes per the number for the pump I 
was at, power was being received fine, but the pumps were not sending out.

Went back and checked the first pump and it was not sending out either, had the 
other person check the tanks and they were not receiving and the tp pipe at the 
tanks said no connected pipes on channel 2.

Long story short, like the original poster said tp pipes that are over ~20 or 
so chunks won't connect up, except power pipes do seem to work in our case, 
both pumps were receiving power from the village, we setup item tp pipes to 
test as well and that didn't work over a distance (pump area to village) but 
did to a tp pipe setup in the same chunk (item tests were done on channel 3)

I am having this issue with rev 27 and bc 2.2.4 with MC 1.8.1.  The chunks are 
not staying laoded.  And I do see the blocks going back.  But I know its just 
visual.  Is is a smp server that we are using it on.  And its not 20+ chucnks 
away.  Maybe 200 block away.
