When ordering the LWAPP AP you can selection to order with service provider
option which means it it configured to send the VCI with string
"-ServiceProvider" appended. If you AP's have been ordered with this option
your DHCP server may not have this VCI configured and hence why it doesn't
work. A quick debug of the DHCP request should show you if this is the
problem.
