I use dhclient. My /etc/dhclient.cong contains only: send host-name "GIVENNAME"; supersede domain-name "lan.domainaddress.dom"; prepend domain-name-servers 127.0.0.1; Gateway seemes to be provided through DHCP. But you may add it by (I think, but never tried): option routers 192.33.137.250; According to "man dhcp-optons" option routers ip-address [, ip-address... ]; The routers option specifies a list of IP addresses for routers on the client's subnet. Routers should be listed in order of preference.
