How did you "set an incorrect default route on my system"? Your fix, "route
del default", will at best remove the route for the current session ... that
is, until you reboot. If you set the wrong route in some rc script (one that
runs as part of the init process), that script will still run every time you
reboot.
If that's what you did, you need to find the script that has the error. The
easiest way is to cd to the directory of rc scripts for your default
runlevel (e.g., /etc/rc2.d/ if you use runlevel 2) and grep the incorrect
address. Then edit that file to correct it.
Sorry to be so roundabout, but I don't run RH here so don't know the fine
details of its init procedure. On my Debian systems, you'd make the change
I'm trying to describe in /etc/init.d/network .
