Does 6.0 support static IP addresses with custom default gateway? I receive the following error when attempting to specify a gateway:

# route add default gw 10.0.128.1 eth0
route: resolving 'gw': No such file or directory

Is there an alternate method of specifying the default gw?

busybox route add default gw 10.0.128.1

That worked - thank you. Now troubleshooting DNS:
#ping -c 1 8.8.8.8

... success ...

#getprop:grep dns

[net.change]: [net.dns1]

[net.dns1]: [8.8.8.8]

#nslookup www.google.com

Server: 0.0.0.0

Address 1: 0.0.0.0

nslookup: can't resolve 'www.google.com': No address associated with hostname

Can you send me the commands to set static ip? I am stuck with it. I could not ping any network after setting

ifconfig eth0 [IP] netmask [NETMASK]

busybox route add default gw [GATEWAY] dev eth0.

Am I missing anything?
