Your ISP should improve it's routing handling. I administrate an IP dial in
server and none of my users with multiple IP adresses has to use "routed"(*)
or something horrible like that. The PPP or SLIP login scripts automatically
create a network route if necessary.
(*) At our university I see quite frequently what a single Novell *shrugh*
multi protocoll router can do to a large network using "routed".
