    I am pretty sure 192.168.xxx.xxx is deemed to be a private network, which
    gets ignored on other (sub)-nets.

    You should apply for a 44-net IP and try that. Also, you should probably
    be on the same sub-net as your direct neighbours for the ping to work.

    Use ping -c5 -i10 to avoid flooding the network ('man ping')

    Hope this helps...
