Upgrading firmware and other such things can be quite unreliable over
mac winbox. It¹s just not Mikrotik though. Have other vendors I have to wait
until DHCP times out. As I mentioned in the original post a static IP is
an option, but still annoying. If there is a way to shorten the DHCP
timeout that is the end goal. My mac times out on DHCP within 10-15 seconds.
