MX64 WAN DHCP IP not refreshing after power failure

Hi, after a power failure my MX64 seems to just sit there and not try to refresh it's WAN IP. I have to manually remove the cable and reinsert it to make it come online again. I belive this is due to that the MX64 is much faster to boot up than my ADSL modem. Can't find any DHCP lease timer for the WAN interface. Any tips to make this work automatically ?

Kind of a big deal

You'd have to try to manually reproduce that to test it. But the lesser practical solution would be to get a static IP or better battery backup.  I'd be surprised if the MX doesn't keep trying to check it's port for a DHCP connection.  Also verify you are on the latest firmware.
