Get the source of your operating system and modify the TCP implementation
to use less retries on the initial TCP SYN message, recompile and install,
or edit HTDoConnect in the file HTTCP.c in the Lynx source to include
code to implement a timeout shorter than the operating system's.

Note, the first may make the OS non-compliant with the TCP specifications.
