Narrative:

The aircraft was operating with MEL 26-14: main landing gear bay overheat detection system. The operational procedure for this MEL requires the aircraft to depart with the landing gear extended for 10 minutes after departure. Shortly after departure; center instructed us to maintain a forward speed of 300 knots. When we responded that we were unable; the controller was verbally agitated that he was not informed of the operational restriction. We informed the controller that we would be able to increase forward speed shortly. As soon as our time limitation from the operational procedure from the MEL was concluded; we retracted the landing gear and were able to comply with the controller's speed requests. The threat was the controller not being able to sequence us for the arrivals into ZZZ1. The error was the controller not being made aware of our operational limitation on speed.
