Hmm ... something is not right at the router, or your ethernet cable is 
faulty/unplugged.

Are you sure that 192.168.1.1 is the correct address for it?  After you set on 
the command line your ip address using ifconfig run this:

arping -c 3 -I eth0 192.168.1.1

If your router is not responding, please check its firewall list and any 
access control lists you may have set up for it - you may have typed 
incorrectly the MAC address for your eth0 NIC.
