As I'm nice I'll clarify.

The people further up the chain are right, he has no idea what he's talking about but being an IT tech I'm sure you'd know that a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP rather than DCHP) server is absolutely nothing to do with electrical power levels on a coaxial/optical given that its' purpose in life is to hand out IP addresses.

Exactly 3 things affect power levels - modem, CMTS and the optical and coaxial network in between. The end.

Sorry to not be able to give further advice, but DHCP issues it most certainly is not. The issue is either very local to you or along the cable network somewhere, it's certainly nothing to do with a Solaris server with no awareness of the RF network.
