If your routing is simple enough that a default route handles everything,
i.e. you have one connection to all networks that are not on your local
wire, then you don't need routed. Routed is a fairly complicated
program, and difficult to configure correctly, so if your default route
handles everything for you, TURN routed OFF! The routing table you
included would seem to indicate this is true.
