Packets are sent and received.  No errors shown.

That address should be reachable.  Perhaps the router
is configured to ignore pings?

I assume your router provides a path to the internet.  
If so, I suggest you try this:
----------------
ping 192.94.73.1
----------------
Or, alternatively start the links browser (press d).
Press g and type:  http://192.94.73.1

Do either of those connect to anything?

Cheers,
