WiNG 5.9 DHCP on VLAN660 response inconsistent

WiNG 5.9 DHCP on VLAN660 response inconsistent

I have a question about our NX5500 with WiNG 5.9
We have configured 3 VLANs with 2 of them working fine with a DHCP scope on a Juniper firewall. The 3rd VLAN has a DHCP scope on a Linksys router and this one is not performing consistently. We do get the occasional address if we're lucky but at least 75% of the request from a phone for instance fails.
Our partner has now implemented the following solution: it will let the AP's request a DHCP address on this VLAN and now all request are working fine.
But there's a drawback; now I can see the web-interface of all the AP7532's showing in a network scan. There's no danger as we cannot log on to the web-interface, luckily.
Would there be another solution to stabilize the DHCP service in this specific VLAN without serving the AP's an IP address?
How about adding a route in this specific VLAN to the gateway serving the DHCP addresses?
You're thoughts on this are very much appreciated.

Hi Andy, I've checked our config and we have had the DHCP broadcast to unicast option enabled from the beginning so this is not a fix for us.
Do you happen to have any other suggestions?

Thanks Andy, I will have a look at your suggestion next week and report back.
