You have no route to anything but your local network. Your default route
has a bogus gw (loops back to yourself).

That "network" should be 193.173.210.192 (based on ip/netmask). Although,
your routing (1st route) shows the correct network.

Add a real default route with a gw that points to the remote IP of your
gateway. If that gw IP is not within your network, you would first need a
-host route to it.
