Well I personally wouldn't use the APIPA range of addresses for anything
sophisticated enough to require routing, but when you manually add a route,
I assume you're doing this with the 'ROUTE ADD' command? You can add a -p at
the end of the command to make the route you've just defined persistent -
have you tried this and found it didn't work?
