I think you need to add a route for your bridge.  Assuming your bridge
device is still br-lan, with the 192.168.0.0/24 network, you need to
add this route to the kernel routing table for that device, and this
command should do it:

route add -net 192.168.0.0/24 dev br-lan

When I was debugging my setup, I was using tcpdump on the various
interfaces while pinging different networks to see if the traffic was
flowing.

Let me know if that fixes things..

Thanks,
