Just in case you fancied an alternative approach, you can do
this with WMI.

(untested, because I don't want to mess up my gateway)
<code>
import wmi

c = wmi.WMI ()
nic = c.Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration (IPEnabled=True)[0]
print nic.DefaultIPGateway, nic.GatewayCostMetric
nic.SetGateways (DefaultIPGateway=["aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd"],
GatewayCostMetric=["20"])
</code>
