Addendum: For my cable modem, only one "sending discover" is needed for this udhcpc session: -- Oct 27 15:26:45 gw-lan daemon.err udhcpc[595]: started, v1.30.1 Oct 27 15:26:45 gw-lan daemon.err udhcpc[595]: sending discover Oct 27 15:26:45 gw-lan daemon.err udhcpc[595]: sending select for 98.xx.xx.xx Oct 27 15:26:45 gw-lan daemon.err udhcpc[595]: lease of 98.xx.xx.xx obtained, lease time 86400 -- My IP address is somewhat "sticky" associated with my external interface MAC address. If the MAC address changed or 24 hours of no activity then it may take a little longer and more "sending discover" messages to grab an IP.
