Try giving some information that will help.
What does the DHCP server log when this happens for example ?
How often do users have to repair their connections ? It shouldn't
normally happen, and when it does it should be a rare occurance.
When the client IS working, do you have any packet loss ? If you ping
other devices, do you get any timeouts ?
