Pong Problem

Some users get the message "Didn't receive a pong from the mote". This issue has been observed on some linux platforms as well as some hardware platforms, like a MICAz + MIB520. It could be a serial driver issue. We're not sure where the problem lies, because it's below the level at which TUnit operates.

TUnit establishes a connection with the node using a serial forwarder on the computer side. To verify the connection has been established, TUnit sends a message through the serial forwarder (ping). It waits for some time before giving up.

One thing we might try is disconnecting / reconnecting / pinging a few times.
