Why is your gateway IP's the same as your local machine's?
Generally, if your address is L and the gw is G, and you're both
on net N (for example, 122.188.100.0), you want:
route add -net N
route add default gw G
(you do want G to be your default gateway, right?)
You didn't tell us which distribution you use, so I can't tell
you what's the "proper" way of setting this to be persistent across
boots, but if you use redhat, edit the files
/etc/sysconfig/network and
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
to suit your needs.

Try the Network Administrator's Guide.
Good luck,
