Check file:
\MPTN\BIN\setup.cmd
There is a command:
dhcpstrt -i lan0 -d 10

The value after the '-d' is the timeout value. I have my timeout
set to 10 seconds. I've seen other recommendations for using zero,
but ten has worked well for me.

One heads-up: If you make ANY changes to the configuration using
the MPTS command, it will reset the timeout to the 60 second default.
Therefore, you will always have to go back and 'fix' it to your own
preference. It is a real PITA that there is not a place in the MPTS
settings to allow you to specify your own default. Maybe there is a
way to edit the command itself, but I'm not adventurous enough to try.
