I don't know if this has anything to do with your problem, but you could
change the network nubmer. According to the IP-Masquerading mini-HOWTO,
these IP numbers are reserved for private networks:

                     10.0.0.0        -   10.255.255.255
                     172.16.0.0      -   172.31.255.255
                     192.168.0.0     -   192.168.255.255
