This was a solution posted by biotek1 on linuxquestions.org that he 
received from linuxant support:

Hi,

this is a comon problem when using DHCP with SuSE 9. Verify your interface's
configuration (/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-...) to make sure you have the
following parameters.

DHCLIENT_MODIFY_RESOLV_CONF='yes'
DHCLIENT_SET_DEFAULT_ROUTE='yes'


Although the original poster had limited success, this does the trick 
for me.  DHCP now comletely works.  The only time I need to make any 
wifi changes is when I change wifi networks and need to edit the ESSID 
or WEP key.
