btw, (unrelated to #537271), it seems to me that 3 seconds is a fairly short value for NETCFG_LINK_WAIT_TIME. i'm pretty sure i've seen link-up take longer than that on occasion before, depending on NIC chipset, switch, autonegotiation latency, etc. 5 - 10 seconds would be a more conservative default, given that there's no penalty if link-up occurs before the timeout.
