[REQUIRED] Step 2: Describe your environment

• Android Studio version: Android Studio Arctic Fox | 2020.3.1 Patch 3
• Firebase Component: Remote Config
• Component version: 21.0.1

[REQUIRED] Step 3: Describe the problem

I set firebase remote config fetch timeout to 5 seconds, but it is ignored and default one (60 seconds) is used.
To test this I setup charles proxy with following throttling configuration:

Steps to reproduce:

1. Setup proxy to delay all communication for 100 seconds
2. Run app with timeout set to 5 seconds
3. FirebaseRemoteConfig.fetch blocks for around 60 seconds

Relevant Code:

val firebaseRemoteConfig = FirebaseRemoteConfig.getInstance()
firebaseRemoteConfig.setConfigSettingsAsync(
    FirebaseRemoteConfigSettings.Builder()
        .setFetchTimeoutInSeconds(5)
        .build()
).await()
firebaseRemoteConfig.fetch(remoteConfigFetchInterval).await()
firebaseRemoteConfig.activate().await()

private fun <T> Task<T>.await() = Tasks.await(this)

Hi all, upon testing this code snippet on the latest version 21.0.2 it seems to work properly. Could you verify if you're still experiencing this issue @adam2603.

@MatthiasDh, could you add more details such as steps to repro or minimal repro of your issue?
