John, Easiest way to determine the gateway is to look at a PC that is connected to the internet from the network. Open a DOS command prompt. Use the command IPCONFIG /ALL The default gateway is listed. If you have more questions feel free to contact me off list or give me a call (or IM me if you want). I have done this many times for different clients as well as our in-house 400's.
