Routes in networking refer to the paths that data packets take from their source to their destination across a network. These paths are determined by routers, which use routing tables and protocols to decide the most efficient way to forward the packets.

Gateway in networking is a device that acts as a "gate" between two networks. It is responsible for routing traffic from a local network to other networks, often the internet. The gateway is typically a router that connects the local network to external networks.
