is your computer using DHCP, so that the network interface gets reconfigured by the DHCP server from time to time?

Rep:
Your computer is not taking IP from DHCP, means you have to make static route. You're not using any network manager. So, you have to add a static route. Static route configuration is stored in a /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-interface file, whereas interface is like eth0, eth1, etc.
And to add a static route you can take reference from here.
