In Czech? Nice... I don't know how to set it to get Polish...

I have some doubt about this setup: 192.168.x. are Class C
networks - this means mask should be 255.255.255.0. Maybe
something is set incorrectly when you try to use it as
Class B network? Try another mask, and check routing by
/sbin/route - seems you have missed some entry there.
