Routing is a two-way process. As well as having a route to get the
traffic to a target machine, there must be a route which the target can use
to get the reply back.
You can get traffic to a target machine in the 192.168.1 subnet, but that
machine does not know where the 192.168.5 subnet is. It will send the
traffic to its default router, which doesn't know either. Since it is a
private address which cannot cross the Internet it will be dropped.
It works with NAT enabled because now all traffic from 192.168.5 is
using the NAT router's 192.168.1 address, which your gateway router knows
about.
To get it to work without NAT, you need to add extra routing info to the
192.168.1 network so that it knows how to reach the 192.168.5 subnet. The
easiest way to do that is to add a static route to the gateway router.
eg
192.168.5.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.122
The setup then looks like this.
Internet
|
gateway
192.168.1.1 {static route 192.168.5.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.122}
|
LAN clients
192.168.1.x dg 192.168.1.1
|
192.168.1.122 dg 192.168.1.1
RRAS
192.168.5.12 dg blank
|
clients
192.168.5.x dg 192.168.5.12
