Map tiles don't automatically connect, so you can't just download
two overlapping areas and have them join up for routing purposes.

The easiest way is to start with a single file that covers the area of
interest and use use splitter to create the separate tiles since it is
designed to do the right thing.

You could probably make your downloads work by ensuring there is
enough overlap in the actual data, and then manually changing the
bounding boxes inside the files so that the bounding boxes join with
zero overlap.
