No, I don't have a solution.  What is in your /etc/iproute2/rt_tables file?

Normally, everything should be commented except
255	local
254	main
253	default
0	unspec

Are you sure 'route add' should work when both routes are identical?

Where does the 192.168.100.254 come from?

Why allow NAT of the internet IPs?  
OPINION 1: One NAT is plenty, two is begging trouble.
OPINION 2: Most of the problems reported here have "example.com" ip addresses,
so avoiding NAT is A Good Thing.
