Change the connect to interval to something larger. Go to BOINC manager and under the projects tab highlight Einstein and hit update. This will force communication with the project servers.
This shouldn't be done in large jumps... only increase by a day or so at at time until you have the right amount of work on your machine.
This is a global setting so it'll affect all of your running projects.
BOINC tends to be pretty conservative with regards to deadlines. It'll try very hard not to get into an overcommitted state. So bump up that number slowly.
