Default gateway disappears on reboot.

We have a few vanilla workstations running Windows XP SP1 plus hotfixes.

When we reboot the workstation a lease is obtained from our Win2000 DHCP
server, but the default gateway is blank.
When we do ipconfig /renew, the default gateway is filled in. This is
cumbersome for our users and support team.

Anyone have any suggestions? Obviously DHCP is working, but the default
gateway isn't being filled in.

Thank you in advance.
