I'm not a dhcp expert, but I thought your gateway was assigned to you by
the dhcp daemon when you brought the interface up. (?) You might want to
check to see if you are getting an IP from via dhcp from your router. Do a
'/sbin/ifconfig' and see if the IP for interface looks right.

If your router has a static IP, you can manually put your gateway's IP in
the file /etc/sysconfig/network with :
  GATEWAY="192.168.0.1"
or whatever IP it has.
