You are correct 192.168.0.1 doesn't work. This appears to me to be a bug. Anything outside of 192.168.111.1 to 192.168.111.254 doesn't work. I am not a network person, but perhaps setting up a NAT for 192.168.111.1 to 192.168.0.1.

The C class determination for 192.168.0.0/16 was a curiosity and I appreciate the clarification. I checked the RFC and found this:
RFC 1918 Address Allocation for Private Internets February 1996
3. Private Address Space
The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) has reserved the
following three blocks of the IP address space for private internets:
10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255 (10/8 prefix)
172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255 (172.16/12 prefix)
192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255 (192.168/16 prefix)
We will refer to the first block as "24-bit block", the second as
"20-bit block", and to the third as "16-bit" block. Note that (in
pre-CIDR notation) the first block is nothing but a single class A
network number, while the second block is a set of 16 contiguous
class B network numbers, and third block is a set of 256 contiguous
class C network numbers.
The problem remains that while NMMGR will validate 192.168.216.1 as a gateway it will not validate 192.168.0.1 despite the IP net-mask being 255.255.0.0.
