Subject: `waitfor': timed out while waiting for more data error on ruby telnet connection

Hi,

  i tried with below commands to telnet connection to the device

require 'net/telnet'
  con = Net::Telnet::new("Host"=> 'X.X.X.X',"Port"=> XXXX, "Prompt"=>
/User:/, "Timeout"=> 240,"Output_log"=>"output_log.log", "Dump_log"=>
"dump_log.log") { |c| print c }
  con.cmd("String" => "admin","Match" => /Password:/,"Timeout" => 180) {
|c| print c }
  con.cmd("String" => "mypass","Match" => /\(#{$prompt}\) \>/,"Timeout"
=> 60) { |c| print c }
  con.cmd("String" => "show run","Match" => /\(#{$prompt}\)
\>/,"Timeout" => 60) { |c| print c }
  con.close


  I am able to connect with the console at some times. but some times i
got error like

C:/Ruby193/lib/ruby/1.9.1/net/telnet.rb:558:in `waitfor': timed out

If anyone have solution to fix  that issue.
