We cannot connect to the MSColab Server on a guest WiFi with very long connection times (>2s), which may or may not be caused by a deep-inspecting firewall.

The timeout should be configurable to provide a work around.
Also, the current timeouts are defined as "magic number" in a wide range of places and the values should be collected to a single instance (as mentioned above, defined in the json configuration).

If your ISP is throttling certain types of traffic or has poor peering with other networks, VPN will mask the traffic and the result is faster.
