When I try to set the default route without the device being up I get the same message...
Have you configured the tunnel devices at both ends at all (up, addresses and such)?

RTNETLINK answers: Network is unreachable
This is the same answer when I try to set the default route via the tunnel name.

back through the main network. Reason: some connections realize that traffic coming from my relocate network is coming via an invalid route and is filtered.
this is also called RPF or reverse path filtering, and is sometimes used as a partial countermeasure against spoofed ddos attacks
