i hope,  here you don't need any route entry.
first check whether both the interfaces are up and running. check
whether the link is up, with proper speed(Auto-negotiation), by this
command "ethtool eth0" show the link-status and auto-negotiation.
if still, not working, let me know the 'speed' of the interface.
