+4We typically use Jamf to send a lock command to our MacBooks on. We have one MacBook that has the "Incorrect PIN entered too many times. Please try again in x minutes" where x = 24,321,071.
Does anyone know of a way to get past this besides waiting 46 years?

@danbaver I'll 2nd @jamf-42 's connect it to a wired Ethernet port suggestion. If that doesn't help you're probably going to need to send it in to Apple for a motherboard replacement (when I worked in EDU that was the response to Macs that wouldn't take the unlock PIN, but we didn't have any that were showing the 46 year delay)
