I think I had this same problem. Let me have a look at your /etc/init.d/network.
I thought it was something that I scewed up during the install but it looks like it might be a bug. It sets the local interface as the default route rather than setting it to what is supposed to be the gateway. (looks like the local interface somehow gets plugged into $GATEWAY).
