The GATEWAY setting should be set to 150.100.210.254. The correct address will be the address of the Ethernet card of the machine that your router is connected to.
Do you have an ipchains script set up? If not, try reading the following HOWTO: http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO/other-formats/html_single/IP CHAINS-HOWTO.html As Mike said, you will need to set up Network Address Translation to allow your non-routable IPs to get to the outside world.
