What does this mean:

hendrik@midwinter:~/write/Melinda/Melinda$ ping 172.25.1.11
PING 172.25.1.11 (172.25.1.11) 56(84) bytes of data.
From 169.254.2.124 icmp_seq=1 Destination Host Unreachable
From 169.254.2.124 icmp_seq=2 Destination Host Unreachable
From 169.254.2.124 icmp_seq=3 Destination Host Unreachable

It's a simple ping from my laptop to my server over wifi
 (while wifi seems to be not working).

The LAN has addresses 172.25.1.*
So where does if get 169.254.2.124 from?

168.254.x.x is a link-local address, it´s a symptom of DHCP problems. If a host can´t get an address via DHCP, it takes an address from this pool. You should check your dhcp server, or the network might be unreachable from your host.
