Please have your mail client wrap your e-mail to this list at 72 characters.

Your routing table doesn't look right. Did you copy/paste or transcribe it?

You have assigned 192.168.0.1 to your lo0 (loopback, see the manage for 
lo(4)) interface. However your route for the 192.168.0 says its directly 
connected on vr0.

What does ifconfig output for lo0 vr1 and vr2 show?

The reason you can ping 192.168.0.1, is because it is your own 
interface. It doesn't indicate that the network (e.g. cables, switch 
hub, etc...) between that interface and the rest of 192.168.0 are set up 
properly or that 192.168.0.2 is configured properly.

I'm curious why you are setting things up in the way that you are. I 
this just a learning experience, or is there any particular reason that 
you do not want to put all your internal hosts on the same physical 
subnet and let your ADSL router handle NATing for you?

Also, just out of curiosity is this a VIA Mini-ITX based system?

Again, please wrap your at 72 characters, if you want to increase your 
chances of having someone answer your questions.
