running a packet sniffer on one of the PCs, while the PowerBook boots, to find out what kind of DHCP traffic is being passed between the PowerBook and the router? I remember having occasional issues with Jaguar not connecting well on my iBook to my US Robotics router, but the Panther upgrade seemed to fix that. (Just to sympathize, not that that has anything to do with your problem.)
OS X doesn't give you a lot to play with where network settings are concerned, unless you want to delve into the configuration scripts. At first glance, it sounds to me like the problem is the router - not the laptop's configuration. Does it matter how long the laptop is left asleep or disconnected to the router? How long is the router configured to maintain the DHCP leases? Running a packet sniffer might give you some clues, to see what kind of address lease it's trying to negotiate. Then you can fine-tune it.
HTH. |
