With a 169.254.x.x address I'm surprised it can talk to anything else on your network. Your internet router is running dd-wrt - correct? Why not enable the dhcp server software on that and serve static IP addresses to everything on your network? eg https://wiki.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Static_DHCP Your /etc/hosts files will still work and you'll stop getting 169.254.x.x addresses assigned to your machines.
