OK, the 192.168.1.3 - 192.168.1.1 is my typo, 192.168.1.3 is the correct IP 
for the Host on this interface.
I was first planning to use the 192.168.2.0/24 network here, but I had 
forgotten that that was already used somewhere else in my network, so I just 
picked the next "free" network address. Sorry for the confusion.

I have tried you suggestions above but I still have no network connection.
