IIIRC the problem is in the busybox DHCP which doesn't retry on
failure by default,
fortunately this is just a config option for busybox, so if you
do a make busybox-menuconfig you can change that behaviour
run "udhcpc --help" on the target to see what options are
available
set IFUPDOWN_UDHCPC_CMD_OPTIONS to whatever fits you ned
