Hey, guys, I got disconnected while playing on chrome and went to log back in and was absentmindedly typing my password while watching something on my other computer screen.

I guess I kept repeatedly typing it wrong and had caps on and then mistyping and after I slowed down, paid attention and typed it correctly, I got a message saying:

"There have been too many login failures for this device. Please wait a while before attempting to login again."

Anyone know how long I have to wait before it will give me another shot at typing in the correct password?

I assume it is an automatic lock to ensure someone doesn't try to brute force guess your password.

Thanks!

I think it takes 5 minutes or so.
