Any suggestions?

your configuration says that you are using the interceptor in 'listen' mode 
(that is the default configuration, and you have not specified anything 
else).  so you must make the GW1000 direct its traffic to the port on which 
the interceptor is listening (by default that is port 80).  the standard 
way of doing this is to hijack the dns on the subnet to which the GW1000 is 
connected so that when it does dns queries for the wu server, it gets the 
ip address of the pi.  if dhcp is being done by the pi, then add the dns 
entry to the dhcp configuration on the pi.  otherwise, add it to the dns 
server or dhcp server on your local network.

alternatively, instead of listening, you could configure the interceptor to 
sniff.  in that case the GW1000 traffic will go to wu, but the pi will 
intercept it as it goes from the wifi interface to the wired interface.
