Remove the gateway check for routes (#1317)

Most operating systems add a /32 route for the default gateway address to its routing table

This will allow routes to be configured into the system even when the incoming range contains the default gateway.

In case a range is a sub-range of an existing route and this range happens to contain the default gateway it attempts to create a default gateway route to prevent loop issues

-**NetBird is an open-source VPN management platform built on top of WireGuard® making it easy to create secure private networks for your organization or home.**
+**NetBird combines a configuration-free peer-to-peer private network and a centralized access control system in a single platform, making it easy to create secure private networks for your organization or home.**
 
-It requires zero configuration effort leaving behind the hassle of opening ports, complex firewall rules, VPN gateways, and so forth.
+**Connect.** NetBird creates a WireGuard-based overlay network that automatically connects your machines over an encrypted tunnel, leaving behind the hassle of opening ports, complex firewall rules, VPN gateways, and so forth.
 
-NetBird uses [NAT traversal techniques](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interactive_Connectivity_Establishment) to automatically create an overlay peer-to-peer network connecting machines regardless of location (home, office, data center, container, cloud, or edge environments), unifying virtual private network management experience.
+**Secure.** NetBird enables secure remote access by applying granular access policies, while allowing you to manage them intuitively from a single place. Works universally on any infrastructure.
-
-**Key features:**
-- \[x] Automatic IP allocation and network management with a Web UI ([separate repo](https://github.com/netbirdio/dashboard))
-- \[x] Automatic WireGuard peer (machine) discovery and configuration.
-- \[x] Encrypted peer-to-peer connections without a central VPN gateway.
-- \[x] Connection relay fallback in case a peer-to-peer connection is not possible.
-- \[x] Desktop client applications for Linux, MacOS, and Windows (systray).
-- \[x] Multiuser support - sharing network between multiple users.
-- \[x] SSO and MFA support. 
-- \[x] Multicloud and hybrid-cloud support.
-- \[x] Kernel WireGuard usage when possible.
-- \[x] Access Controls - groups & rules.
-- \[x] Remote SSH access without managing SSH keys.
-- \[x] Network Routes.  
-- \[x] Private DNS.
-- \[x] Network Activity Monitoring.

+### Quickstart with NetBird Cloud
+
+- Download and install NetBird at [https://app.netbird.io/install](https://app.netbird.io/install)
+- Follow the steps to sign-up with Google, Microsoft, GitHub or your email address.
+- Check NetBird [admin UI](https://app.netbird.io/).
+- Add more machines.
+
+### Quickstart with self-hosted NetBird
+
+> This is the quickest way to try self-hosted NetBird. It should take around 5 minutes to get started if you already have a public domain and a VM.
+Follow the [Advanced guide with a custom identity provider](https://docs.netbird.io/selfhosted/selfhosted-guide#advanced-guide-with-a-custom-identity-provider) for installations with different IDPs.
+
+**Infrastructure requirements:**
+- A Linux VM with at least **1CPU** and **2GB** of memory.
+- The VM should be publicly accessible on TCP ports **80** and **443** and UDP ports: **3478**, **49152-65535**.
+- **Public domain** name pointing to the VM.
+
+**Software requirements:**
+- Docker installed on the VM with the docker compose plugin ([Docker installation guide](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/)) or docker with docker-compose in version 2 or higher.
+- [jq](https://jqlang.github.io/jq/) installed. In most distributions
+  Usually available in the official repositories and can be installed with `sudo apt install jq` or `sudo yum install jq`
+- [curl](https://curl.se/) installed.
+  Usually available in the official repositories and can be installed with `sudo apt install curl` or `sudo yum install curl`
+
+**Steps**
+- Download and run the installation script:
+```bash
+export NETBIRD_DOMAIN=netbird.example.com; curl -fsSL https://github.com/netbirdio/netbird/releases/latest/download/getting-started-with-zitadel.sh | bash
+```
+- Once finished, you can manage the resources via `docker-compose`
+
 ### A bit on NetBird internals
 -  Every machine in the network runs [NetBird Agent (or Client)](client/) that manages WireGuard.
 -  Every agent connects to [Management Service](management/) that holds network state, manages peer IPs, and distributes network updates to agents (peers).
