    initial v1  
    1 We are getting NAK from the router/DHCP server, which apparently leads to an immediate retry. The timeout would be used only when there is no reply at all from the router.

    3 We should probably handle NAK differently.
     3We should probably handle NACK differently, maybe retry immediately the first time (in case the server just wants us to forget the previously assigned address) and then as we get more and more NACKs, wait a little more when retrying. This could be handled in a way similar to the existing timeout system, but it is a different thing, as we are getting messages from the server.
