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

        <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?
