The whole thing is windows takes so long if there is no DHCP server
available. For example, plug into a fresh Mikrotik with no configuration.
How long does Windows take to time out if it is set to DHCP? I have timed

Justin,
I know exactly why you are asking about this. I have been aggravated by
this myself. It's never a issue unless you are in a hurry and then it's
like it never times out. You would think there would be a registry
setting but I have googled this and lots of people ask about this but
I know mine doesn't take nearly 1.5 minutes or at least it doesn't
take that long before I can get to Winbox. I think it waits about 30s
and then sets a 169.254.x.x. While it is searching for a DHCP lease,
I can look at Winbox which will fail when it sets that 169.254.x.x.

I used to use net profile but grew tired of the time it takes for windoze to
