What IP is your router on? Is it connected via RJ45 straight onto the network or to one of the windoze PCs? If your router is 192.168.0.254 then to set it as your gateway:
# route add -net default gw 192.168.0.254 netmask 0.0.0.0 metric 1
You will then have to add your DNS servers to /etc/resolv.conf
