Ok, let's see: you say that your eth0 (which I guess is the interface 
connected to the ADSL and thus to the Internet) has ip address 
192.168.0.1. Then, you use this command to start uml:

UML> linux ubd0=root_fs ubd1=swap_fs eth0=tuntap,,,192.168.0.1

this means that the *host's* tun/tap interface gets ip address 
192.168.0.1 as well. So, the host ends up with its two interfaces having 
the same ip address (do "ip addr" or "ifconfig" when uml is running to 
confirm this) . 
If the above is true, try using different addresses for the tun/tap<->uml 
network, for example from the 10.0.0.0 pool.
