i'm australian and i would pronounce:

route: equally correct as 'rowt' or 'root'.
rout: always rowt
root: always root
router: always 'rowter'
routed: 'rowted: networking meaning, rooted: localised meaning:
stuffed || buggered || made love to ..."

Then there's the "Row, row, row your boat" versus the "starting a row [fight/argument]" showing that it's just now "rou" in question, but "row" too :-)
