you could theoreticaly have the external NIC use DHCP (client) but setting
it manually is a good idea.

David's suggestion to check the DHCP server bindings is where I'd be
heading.

If I found that DHCP server was bound to the external NIC I'd probably run
the 'Change my server IP' wizard to see if it fixes this condition. I'd
actually run it twice if I had cause to remain in the same subnet, once to
switch out, and again to switch back.
