may i also suggest to move your network off of the 192.168.0.0/24 range? IME 
i've found that staying away from

   192.168.0.0/24
   192.168.1.0/24
   192.168.254.0/24

is best for a number of reasons... one main one is those are common defaults... 
i prefer to use a random range out of the way of those defaults specifically to 
thwart devices popping in and attempting to use an address that may already be 
active on another device... this use of a non-default random range also goes for 
the others of RFC1918...
