You said you can ping IP addresses in the net and get back a pong on the
LAN client hosts, correct? But if you ping a host by name in the
internet that fails? On the client then test DNS:

dig google.com +trace

Btw. 162.39.164.14 does not resolve my requests (only when using dig
with +trace). That can be the problem.

Looks ok.

If above is not leading to success. Does connections to named internet
hosts from the gateway host itself work properly? Then check your
firewalling.
