Ok...so you already know the command; where is the problem?? Read the man page on the route command.

Delete the gateway you put in previously with a "route del" command, then add the new default gateway command in with the command you first ran.

First remove old default gateway

Code:

# route del default gw 192.168.old.old <interface>

Then, add new gateway

Code:

# route add default gw 192.168.new.new <interface>

Finally, check

Code:

# route
