To guard against computers spamming the server with requests, there is a delay between how often you can connect the scheduling-server.

This delay is configurable by BOINC-project, and WGC uses same delay as SETI@Home, 10 minutes.


The scheduling-server is always including this delay in all replys, so will not on it's own re-try too early. Only if manually hits "update" can you ask again too recent.


If you looks under the Project-tab, you'll normally see the delay counting-down "Communication deferred nn:nn:nn", so just wait till it counts-down to zero, and the client should automatically ask for more work. :)
