Clearly a network administrator concerned with security would have plenty to say about this. In fact, that may already be the case...a network administrator with a watchful eye on security wouldn't allow any access by MAC addresses that weren't already registered. Thus even if the default gateway were set properly on the wireless router and on any computers using the wireless router, you still wouldn't get anywhere. If you had a desktop computer that you could use to route the traffic from the wireless router for you...but all of that is beyond the scope of the question.
