Hello,

You can't. Exception if you want to use a computer start script with a netsh
command.

You can with a script using the route delete and route add commands. Assign
the script as a startup script unless the user has the rights to change
their tcp/ip settings, in which case you could ase a logon script. I don't
know why you don't want to use DHCP, that would be the standard way. But
these two command lines should do it:

route delete 0.0.0.0
route add 0.0.0.0 mask 0.0.0.0 <gateway address>
