You wait for the 3 minutes and so many seconds. Easy. It's a deferral method which BOINC uses to not 'hammer' the projects servers every second. Else you could leave a heavy object lying on your Enter key while the left mouse button was pointed at the Update button, which would leave you contacting the server 10 times a second. In other words directing a DOS attack against the servers.
So BOINC has a standard deferral method. If it can't contact the servers, you get deferred for a couple of minutes. This is slowly incremented to hours, even days.
