I suspect that the symptom is likely to be more closely related
to your DHCP lease which would be independent of the data
but perhaps dependent on time.

Next time this happens before replying to the prompt
and if your OS is NTx open a command window and enter:

    ipconfig /all >before.txt

Reply to the prompt. Then enter the next three commands.

    ipconfig /all >after.txt
    fc before.txt after.txt >diff.txt
    notepad diff.txt

Is there anything in diff.txt?

You may be able to do a similar diagnosis on non-NTx systems
using winipcfg. I don't know anything about that command but
from what I understand it is not as complete a display and does
not have any text capture facility. So even if it displays the data
we need you will have to transcribe it and do your own comparing.

BTW this question is slightly off-topic for this newsgroup
and may be answered better in a newsgroup which specializes
in networking for your OS.
