You are using a Class A network (it begins with 10.xxx etc) in which case the default network mask should be 255.0.0.0 and the default broadcast address should be 10.255.255.255 How is the subnet mask configured on the router? Adolfo is correct. Your gateway address should be on the same network. That is the whole point of a gateway. It is a device on the same subnet that knows how to route traffic off the subnet. As it stands I do not see how it could possibly work.
