That'll point to a fault with your local cabling in that case, assuming that everyone is dropping out simultaneously with you. Certainly doesn't indicate DHCP though, that'd kill everyone in the entire area off as their leases expired.

Given that you don't believe that DHCP is ok why are you so sure that the tech guys are correct saying that the cabling is fine, especially in light of how you originally reported this, as spiking upstream transmit power?

You do know that the local network engineers have absolutely no way of checking the 'spanning tree' on the DHCP servers, right?

Did you ever capture a report of how long one of the leases that the DHCP is giving you is?
