Ok...I don't know if you are using NAT (natd) or not but I do know that
RFC1918 address cannot talk to public addresses without a Network Address
Traslation server/device/service...any regular router will drop packets
marked with RFC 1918 address....

Please correct me if I am wrong....but the default router should be your
NAT server.
