       I set the IP Address to 192.168.1.50

The net 192.168.0.0 is "internal" and should never be routed to the
internet.  Same with 10.0.0.0 and 172.16.0.0.  See RFC 1918.

You need to have a machine that will translate those addresses to
proper internet addresses before releasing packets to the internet.
The IPNAT capability in NetBSD will do this nicely, but you need
access to the routers to accomplish this.

Cheers,
