Maybe I missed it - anyway, yeah - your workstation thinks its gateway 
is 192.168.1.254 - looks like you have a wireless network (as I type 
this I see your next message which mentions this, LOL).

Good plan, waiting for No0p et al.  And, re the router, yes - see above.

What I would recommend next is to install nmap, scan your router ip (i.e 
nmap 192.168.1.254) and post the results here (unless No0p et al provide 
an alternative solution that is...).
