It already detects what kind of connection you are on.

There's also now configuration for this value in the systemwide config file, /etc/PackageKit/PackageKit.conf: # The time in seconds to wait when we get the StateHasChanged method # # This should be used when a native tool has been used, and the update UIs # should be updated to reflect reality. # # default=5 StateChangedTimeoutPriority=5 Change this to something like 2400 and if should do pretty much what you want.
