First, get a list of the connections, such as:

        sudo nmcli connection show    OR
        sudo nmcli connection show --active (for only active ones)

and locate the connection you wish to modify, then:

        sudo nmcli connection modify --temporary <connname> gateway <ipaddr>

should change it temporarily. If you omit the "--temporary", it should
make a permanent change.

The command is buried in the nmcli man page, but the parameters are
hidden in the nm-settings(5) man page under the "ipv4" section.
