That's not unusual with DHCP. DHCP assigned IP-addresses usually have 
limited life-time until they expire. After expiration machines may be 
assigned a new IP-address.

If you want to access a machine under a static IP-address, you'd have to 
set up your DHCP-server accordingly. How to do so would depend upon you 
DHCP-server's implementation.
