Jerry, You don't say which operating system is on the laptop but since you mention "route print" it's evidently some version of Windows. In Windows manually entered TCP/IP parameters may override parameters supplied by DHCP. On some versions if your laptop TCP/IP configuration has the "Obtain an IP address automatically" radio button selected then the Default Gateway selection is unavailable (grayed out or shaded). However, on other versions, such as Windows Millenium, the Default Gateway can be entered on a separate properties sheet. So it's possible that a manually entered Default Gateway is your problem.
