I had this problem when I switched routers even though the backup router had the exact same settings via the web interface. Vaguely I recall being able to 'fix' the constant windows by choosing Automatic in the Network Settings, probably after disconnecting the router and the computer/s from the network. Once I had the settings in Network preferences, I plugged in the CAT-5 cable to the computer and things work. Now the router assigns IP based on MAC addresses whereas before, it was the computer pulling a self-assigned IP address. It's been a while and I can't find the email either for the specifics.
