I had a similar situation a couple of days ago. Running redhat-config-network and adding the gateway there didn't help any too since as soon as I'd finish adding the gateway and doing a "/etc/rc.d/init.d/network restart" my gateway would disappear again.
In the end I added the line GATEWAY=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx to the /etc/sysconfig/network file by hand and that seemed to fix it.
I do actually have that line.
[root@advanced root]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 DEVICE=eth0 ONBOOT=yes BOOTPROTO=static IPADDR=203.208.228.* NETMASK=255.255.255.0 GATEWAY=203.208.228.129
You shouldn't have that line in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0. It should be in /etc/sysconfig/network...right after the "HOSTNAME=" line.
Thanks alot Rick and Faisal.
