1)You have to set your etc/sysctl.conf file as follows:

kernel.sysrq=0
net.ipv4.ip_forward=1
net.ipv4.conf.default.rp_filter=1
kernel.core_uses_pid=1

then you reboot and the machine will act as a router.
But how did you manage the NAT in your iptables rules??
You have the Gateway definition in any Windows machine under the network adapter properties....
