192.168.0.x is a private non-routable Class C range of addresses. As for the other address, are you behind a firewall or some sort of proxy server?

I use the same 192.168 addressing scheme on my home network. I have a gateway between the cable modem and the switch. The WAN side of the gateway has an IP address assigned (via DHCP) by my ISP. Is this the address you are trying to obtain? I have been able to ping the gateway from outside my network by using the name assigned to me by my ISP. Perhaps you can try that approach.
