Don't run routed. Evil, evil evil.

And routed / gated don't forward packets, you'll have to tell the kernel
to forward packets for you.

In /etc/sysconfig change the line 
gateway=NO

to 

gateway=YES

If you have the /etc/rc.conf configuration file, change the line:

gateway_enable="NO"

to 

gateway_enable="YES"
