Your netbook has it enabled.  It self-configures an IP address and then every 
so many seconds broadcasts on the wire to find if there is a DHCP server 
listening.  When it finds one it requests an IP address from it.

Your desktop hasn't.  When the link comes up again nothing kicks in to either 
request an IP address from the DHCP server, or to self-configure one 
temporarily.  Either enable IPv4LL, or install ifplug/netplug to achieve the 
same end result.
