Does your ISP give you an IP address? DHCP is Dynamic host configuration protocol which means automatically give IP address alternate to STATIC which is the Network admin give the IP address. try putting an static IP address.

Look at the DHCP Server and change the settings regarding the lease time. Also check the settings of your client PCs NICs and turn off any powermanagement funtions for the NIC.
