HRESULT put_ConnectTimeout(long newVal);
Remarks
If a response takes longer than the value specified in ConnectTimeout, the request is canceled. When you try to connect to a server that has multiple IP addresses (multi-homed), the time-out is counted as cumulative for all the IP addresses on the server. For example, if a server has two IP addresses, spending 500 ms on the first IP and 500 ms on the second IP equals a time-out value of 1000 ms for the server.
For recommendations about how to set this time-out value, see Optimizing Connectivity (SQL Server Compact).
