Currently the people that reached out told us that
their routers support static routing. It could be limited, e.g. 8 or 32 entry limit, but
they support it. For reference, they are FritzBox, ZTE, TP-Link, etc. By splitting the
space they can add a single entry, 44.128/10 to their radio or to their Raspberry Pi VPN
server and keep the rest of the traffic to their ISP’s default gateway.
For me, the router's capabilities are actually irrelevant. Talking
about my tunneled /24, I use static IPs for hosts that I want on this
network, and these have a single static route (2 actually) to route
44net IPs to the Pi that runs as an IPIP mesh router, which makes the
final decision as to where to send the packet.
Other hosts on the LAN don't know about these addresses or routing, and
ill attempt to use the ISP (as appropriate), where only those ranges
announced via BGP can be reached.
So for me, the static routing capabilities of the ISP router are
irrelevant, I've designed my network to ensure that's the case.
