Does DHCP server affect ping?
The amount of traffic between a client computer and a DHCP server is quite small, so constrained bandwidth between the DHCP server and client isn’t really cause for alarm. The nature of the protocol is such that users don’t use the DHCP server in an interactive manner, so latency isn’t a big deal.
Why is ping destination unreachable?
Destination host unreachable means that there was no valid route to the requested host. Put very simply, request timeout means there was no response whereas destination unreachable may mean the address specified does not exist i.e. you typed in the wrong IP address.

Why is my DC server not connecting to my DHCP server?
It sounds as if it’s getting its IP from somewhere else on a different subnet that’s either not supposed to be there or just not routed correctly; either way your traffic isn’t getting to the same network as the DHCP or DC servers.
