This tomato firmware will give you the functionality you need to configure DHCP with reserved IPs. http://tomato.groov.pl/download/K26/build5x-116-EN/tomato-K26-1.28.RT-MIPSR2-116-Mini.trx It is small enough to run nicely on 3 of my WRT54g routers. I have had openwrt on them before, but it seems to want a slightly beefier router to run well.
