Currently as per the spec, there is a variable 10 - 60 second delay before dhcpcanon asks for an IP address from the router. This is a relatively poor users experience given what people are used to (a few seconds usually).

Thanks for pointing this.
I remember now that i added an option to set the initial delay and remove it by default in 831bf41.
So it's possible that the delay comes from the router, specially in a network with many users.
You could run it with the verbose option dhcpcanon -v to see whether it stays waiting after it sends the DISCOVER. You can also pass v option to the systemd service.
