This is _not_ showing a successful ping of the gateway. So, your problem lies there. As Alan Altmark suggested, you now need to get your network team involved. Something very fundamental is wrong in your setup, and that's going to be very specific to your particular site. As a starting point, take David's question about the correct IP address for the gateway to them, but Alan's suggestion for an overall review is best.
