Increase license timeout?

Is there anyway to increase the time out for the client to wait for a license to check out? I have a user logging into a VPN and the license checkout fails (in city over), but works fine when in the local area.

The timeout for MathWorks Hosted License Manager(MHLM) license has become adjustable by an environment variable(MW_LM_SERVICE_TIMEOUT ). The base timeout for MHLM license is 60 seconds.

The environment variable: MW_LM_SERVICE_TIMEOUT will override the timeout with its own value in seconds. Set this environment variable on the computer calling MHLM for a license to something greater than 60 seconds.

Note:In a cluster configuration this variable will need to be set on the cluster nodes to take effect.
