Thank you. 

I did as you said, except I killed and restarted the wrong daemon, so 
the change didn't take effect till i rebooted the ipcop machine.

Well, almost as you said.  /etc/dhcpd.conf was a link to 
/var/ipcop/dhcp/dhcpd.conf, so I changed the original file, just to be 
cleaner. 

I presume any change via the web interface will revert it back, since 
the web interface doesn't even have a field for default router.
