The collected works of rothers

Yes, set up a static route in /etc/rc2.d/S30network and nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf manually, here's a good walkthrough:

http://software.majix.org/irix/network-setup.shtml
Do some basic tests and let us know the results:

Ping your router by IP Address

Ping your ISPs gateway by IP Address

Ping your ISPs nameservers by IP Address

Ping some external website by IP Address

Repeat the above by pinging by hostname

Also what are your internal network settings ? IP addresses, default gateway, netmask etc.
