Yes...First post your error log file of squid.
and Did you allow your network traffic in squid with following acl ?

acl our_networks src 192.168.1.0/24                   .....(Your network detail)
http_access allow our_networks

Hi

Is your Linux machine(Squid Server) same as Gateway for your network ? If yes then You also need to configure Firewall (IPTABLE) to act Linux machine as router and pass your internal traffic.

This is good article for setup Linux as Router.
