Hathway willl tell you your gateway. The Hathway nameservers are:
202.88.156.6
202.88.130.67

The first entry in my resolv.conf is 127.0.0.1

ifconfig eth0 <ip>
The gateway will be the first ip in your block, so aaa.bbb.ccc.1
(This is just because Hathway has a similar scheme here).

They gave me a paper with all that information printed on it. 
The files are:
[RH and derivative specific]
/etc/sysconfig/network (GATEWAY=<gw>)
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 (IP, and MASK)

[Non RH specific]
/etc/resolv.conf (nameserver <nameserver ip>)

/me not like transparent proxies.
