Password, password, password!

To active the firewall, the user have to enter the password 3 times within 10 seconds.

Can't the firewall give users 30 seconds after entering the first password?

It's not the firewall, but the underlying technology that doesn't cache the
passwords.
Yeah, it's annoying.
