Thanks for all the responses. We upgraded our Controllers and WCS today to the newly released 4.1 code and all of our Vista issues disappeared.
Thanks.

We just use the DHCP server specified in the dynamic interface for clients. Even the WiSMs do not forward the broadcast packets, it is not a problem. Because it is the unicast ACK from the dhcp server to the dhcp relay(WiSM). Then WiSM sends the ACK to the vista clients through broadcast. So WiSMs won't drop the ACKs. That's my two cents.

The registry change is a nearly unacceptable solution. Easy for our domain PCs but not the students who are just domain users. Thanks.
