That one is a lot clearer.  In British English, the word "route" is
pronounced the same as "root".  In American English, it is pronounced
the same as "rout" (rhyming with "out").  So obviously the correct
pronunciation is like "root-er" :-)

Unless you're talking about the device used to cut channels in pieces
of wood, in which it is rout-er.
