OpenConnectioninvokes the low level socket connection API (HttpWebRequest ).
The HttpWebRequest has its own timeout, which is not changed by Lightstreamer library.
The cause of the request failure may determine whether or not a wait is involved.
Which is your case?
For instance, I see that a request to a local non-existing port fails immediately,
whereas a request to a nonexisting domain fails after quite a long wait.
In any case, a timeout check on OpenConnection is not provided by the library, hence the application should provide its own.
