Hi,
We have a number of Yealink T22P phones, including a new batch.
We have determined that the phones are unable to get an IP address over DHCP when plugged into some switches around the office.
I can see that the phone is sending out a lot of discover messages and getting some responses, but never sending out a request message as far as I can tell:

I can also see that some of them are getting jumbled up.
It seems to be giving up on DHCP discovers very quickly, so it could be getting very confused.
Windows machines are getting addresses fine, but I believe that the wait a while for responses and then use longer and longer timeouts.
We do go through a couple of layers of switches, which I think might be contributing to the problem by slightly delaying responses. We did make changes to the switches a couple of weeks ago.
Is there a way to make the phones wait longer for a response from a DHCP server?
Has anyone else seen similar problems?
Thanks for any insight anyone can offer.
