I have a sonicwall pro 2040 and periodically my system will lose its connectivity to the sonicwall whereas I am unable to ping the firewall WAN interface. This also prevents routing to surf the Internet. Users are only able to ping other devices on the LAN only until....
Users then have to run a windows xp repair and instantly the problem is corrected. This holds for a short while before the issues happens again and another XP network repair is needed. The xp systems never have to reboot, simply run the repair.
I believe thers is a ARP table problem on the firewall, since I have found the issues with a VPN SSL 200 device that has had the same problem, I had to manually create a static ARP entry to ensure that the sonicwall pro 2040 was able to find the device, it would just list the ARP entry. It would not stay there and is flaky.
