Error 104: Connection reset by peer

[martin...@kentor.se]

Hi,
I'm seeing an intermittent issue where a test will fail with when trying to perform a key press. The exception/error message simply says "error 104".

I suspect that this may be caused by a network issue on our local network but it would be nice to get this confirmed to rule out other causes. I'm using a RedRat X device and have made a tiny modification to the irnetbox.py module to make this to work as an IrNetbox but I doubt this is causing the issue (it's been working fine for months)

Stack trace below:
