I have the same problem with knot 3 of edgy i386: it does not save the gateway address when using the Networking pane.

Workaround that seems to work for me: Close the Networking pane and don't open it anymore. Then add the following line to the corresponding interface in the file /etc/network/interfaces

[code]
gateway xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
[/code]

Of course, xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx has to be the address of the gateway.
