As I aspected, totally broken entries.

broadcast address is not your IP. Ask your provider which IP is used for
broadcast in your subnet. It may be 142.179.210.239.

This is probably not your IP! It must be 142.179.210.233.

If netmask 255.255.255.248 is correct, then NETWORK must be
142.179.210.232.

Sure about the gateway? Your provider should be able to ensure you.

With information given I assume you have this net:

142.179.210.232/29 with 6 hosts/IPs from .233 up tp .238
