I configured the wireless to use dhcp at boot. The dhcp client would try to reconnect if the first attempt failed and it took too long. I wanted to set the time out to probably about 5 seconds. I looked at the /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf and wasn't sure if I should add something like timeout = 5 to it. Thanks. |

You're close, but not quite there:
Code:
su
mcedit /etc/dhclient.conf
Replace
Code:
#timeout 60;
with
Code:
timeout 5;
