Why does the test suite take so much longer to run when the wanMode is set to DHCP?

Several of the DHCP-related tests wait for the WAN DHCP client lease to expire. The length of the WAN side lease can be configured using the testvar dhcpLeaseTime. However, depending on the implementation, the value should to be at least twice the device under test's retransmission time in order for retransmission tests to succeed.
