Is this error still present? If it is, please attach the syslog showing the DHCP logging when this occured. The description in this ticket is not enough to be able to spot the problem.

Is it still reproducible?
This happens to me on my eeepc, but only if there are more thanone wireless networks available. In these cases I need to change to a static ip then re-boot. The system will then maintain a connection. Without the re-boot, it will use dhcp and then change the ip to 169.254.0.113 and the connection is dead again.
