Type:
% su
Password: <enter root password>
% route add default <address>
To make it permanent, edit /etc/sysconfig as root, look for the lines
that say
# Set to the host you'd like set as your default router, or NO for none.
defaultrouter=NO
and change it to
# Set to the host you'd like set as your default router, or NO for none.
defaultrouter=<address>
where <address> is the gateway address.
