You might want to take a look at this...
Windows Vista cannot obtain an IP address from certain routers or from
certain non-Microsoft DHCP servers
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928233
"Note: This issue does not occur in Windows 7. The registry key
DhcpConnEnableBcastFlagToggle is set to 1 by default."
Possible scenario might be even though Windows Vista could obtain an IP
address through DHCP initially on boot, they might have problems
re-obtaining an IP address when they come out of sleep.
