In case Swift developer coming here

to do this, you need to use

    let urlconfig = NSURLSessionConfiguration.defaultSessionConfiguration()
    urlconfig.timeoutIntervalForRequest = 12
    urlconfig.timeoutIntervalForResource = 12
    self.session = NSURLSession(configuration: urlconfig, delegate: self.delegates, delegateQueue: nil)
