Odd looking netmask !!!! on first entry
Should it be 255.255.255.0 ?
255.255.252.0 is a sub-netting mask.
In the old days that would be a supernet because the 192.168.x.x
is a class C (255.255.255.0). But that no longer holds true (and
for the life of me I can't remember the dang name, something like
classless). Today that would signify that the network 192.168.0.0
covers the IP addresses 192.168.0.0 through 192.168.3.255. It is
a little odd if this is a home network.

Cider! That's it! Thanks. Really I know what I'm talking about. :-)
