I have just tested a German map using mapsource and can route from W to E
across a tile boundary from a place called Zedwitz to Trogen (a few Km) - it's 
crossing the boundary using a residential street.

Also, the reverse route works as well.

If I switch to the basemap in mapsource it just draws a straight line between
the end points.

Do your problems also occur in mapsource or just on the etrex?

I shall now put the same map on my etrex and see if it routes across
the boundary OK.

Cheers,

Mark
