Want to quickly set the route for your machine from the terminal.

Start by opening up a terminal window, and type the following, just make sure you have the ip address of your gateway to do so. In this case the gateway of 10.3.156.1 is being used.
route add default gw 10.3.156.1 eth0
We can see our changes by typing
route -n
