You have no default route and so the kernel doesn't know where to send
packets destined for IP addresses outside your local network
(192.168.0.0/24) or localhost (127.0.0.1).

Next question is, are you being assigned the IP addresses by a DHCP
server, or are they statically assigned?

If it's statically assigned, you need to specify the default gateway
under the network card configuration. If it's assigned by a DHCP server,
the gateway should be auto-configured.
