Reply To: MDot JoinBack off Concept?

This was in the MDot logs, how come we are getting such a big number from the getNextTxMs for the join backoff interval? The percentages called out in the Join Backoff features, is that a function of time? FYI we have not been connected to the conduit for about 14-15 hours now, also when we get into a series of join failure we get into a 5 minute sleep cycle, so technically we shouldn’t have reached such as large back off time correct?
