Problem
Currently the ota-provider-app uses the default value of 300ms for MRP Active Retry interval. This value is too low for Thread networks where a packet/ACK round-trip time routinely exceeds 300ms. This results in hundreds of re-transmissions during OTA downloads.
Change overview

Testing

The number of re-transmissions went from an average of 1050 to 8.
