Pump is a nice utility for setting the IP address. That IP you address you have now doesn't look like one that the router would assign to it, that's a default IP addres, that's what debian was setting my ethernet card to.
try this
pump -i eth0 -h yourcomputername (ie what you named it when you installed suse, if it doesn't have one assign it one).
Then run ifconfig and see if it gives you an ip address of something like 192.168.0.252 or something like that, then route /sbin/route and your host name computer should have a genmask of 255.255.255.255.
The pump didn't seem to work in SuSE, said bash bad command or something.
