I did find some document on setting one of these routers up.  It seems 
that there is a Windows configuration program for the routers although 
this might not be much good.

This documentation did suggest that the default IP address for the 
router is 10.0.0.2

Have you tried the command

ip route add default via 10.0.0.2

(found this command here: http://linux-ip.net/html/tools-ip-route.html)

If you enter 10.0.0.2 into a web browser do you get the standard router 
interface?
