I don't know of a tool that will show the IP or Device but I'd first
have the AD admins check the Default Domain policy inside the AD Group
Management Console. It sounds like some of the settings for the password
policy may not be set to what is expected.
Under the Default Domain policy I believe the settings are under....
Computer Configuration -> Windows Settings -> Security Settings ->
Account Policies -> Password Policy

We use AD to authenticate our systems; and recently required
all users to change their passwords. We also implemented a
program from PortalGuard for self service password changes.
This seemingly simple process is causing the Help Desk
nightmares! Users have to remember to change passwords on all
devices using our wifi and on mobile apps like email that sync
with our servers. Following is the problem:<span
style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Out of the clear blue, several days or even
weeks after a seemingly successful password change, users are
getting locked out of their accounts, the AD Lockout and Bad
Passwords tool we are using indicate bad passwords. My
question for you: Do you know of a tool that works with AD
that will tell us the ip# or device that is showing a bad
password?
