dhcp timeout on boot

Is there a way to set the dhcp timeout when loading a network device?

When I don't have my laptop plugged in to the network and I boot up, it
sits there waiting for several minutes trying to get a DHCP server to
give it it's info. Control-C doesn't cancel it, so I have to sit there
waiting for it (for what seems like an eternity :) )

Thanks,
Justin
