Define "connect to the device".

Comparing that to my own ifcfg, you are missing the PREFIX and NETMASK  
settings:

YPE=Ethernet
BOOTPROTO=none
IPADDR=192.168.0.1
PREFIX=24
DEFROUTE=yes
IPV4_FAILURE_FATAL=yes
IPV6INIT=no
NAME="Auto lan0"
UUID=fc87afd5-ca26-4881-b7f1-7bdcbea29f1f
ONBOOT=yes
HWADDR=BC:AE:C5:49:B9:3D
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
DEVICE=lan0
USERCTL=no

My static configuration for my WAN port also includes the GATEWAY setting,  
giving the IP address of my ISP's router, on the other side of the bridged  
connection.
