Well, as long as 192.168.194.1 is up and actually connected to the same network as your node, you should be able to PING it. Could you put together a rough diagram of your network? > 2.

In the NETSTAT GATE output for your 5.2 system you had: Default <none> 205.235.227.41 UGS 1500 <none> QDIO1 205.235.227.0 255.255.255.0 <direct> US 1500 <none> QDIO1 The second line implies you are directly connected to the 205.235.227.0/24 network which, based on your IP address, is not true.
