Hi! Actually, my situation is slightly different, but somewhat similar.
Mine affects applications, and not the entire connection. I may be able to get network on YoruFukurou and iTunes, but Safari refuses to except the internet connection. Other times, for instance, I can't retrieve email but I can brows the web and use some other applications until I switch off Wi-Fi then turn it back on. Once I have some more concrete evidence, I'll forward it to Apple. It may be worth checking console logs though, just to be on the safe side. I know that occasions like this are sometimes logged, even though you get a lot of messages very frequently especially when errors occur. I think you may be correct on the DHCP/static IP case, though.
