Ahh!

You can delete the route and add it manually as root in the command line with:
# route delete default <ip address of current gateway>
# route add default <ip address of new gateway> 1 #type the space 1 at the end

Also, check your network mask. You can use the ifconfig command to do it in the command line:

ifconfig hme0 netmask <netmask>

If they were indeed wrong, edit /etc/defaultrouter and add your gateway address, and /etc/netmasks, to make sure they set properly once you reboot.
