Can you access that router from your wife's box (Ubuntu 8.10 with network manager) and have a look at the dhcp logs? Something (client maybe) may be eating up all available ip-addresses. Or there's a buggy dhcp-server on your router. It's, not at all, an unusual scenario :(
I can access the router and it only says: sending OFFER to 192...
wicd is _the_ better choice, IMNSHO. wicd should be available on ubuntu. If it's not available on 8.10, you may consider upgrading your wife's box to a more recent ubuntu vesion.
OK I was thinking to update to 10.4 anyway. Just wanted to wait if there'll pop up some serious bugs. I'll take this opportunity to switch to wicd and hope she wont realise;-)
