Look, this is wrong ...

Your Broadcast should be:  192.168.0.255

Otherwise you're broadcasting packets beyond your LAN.

This looks OK, except that the local receive and transmit counters show zero

This is OK

Aha! This is no longer correct if you are running the latest stable 
baselayout2 and openrc.  Instead it should be:

config_eth0="dhcp"

no brackets!

This is correct.

Change the dhcp entry in your /etc/conf.d/net and run:

 /etc/init.d/net.eth0 restart
