NB - Doesn't WaitForPort loop indefinitely (with a default 1 second interval) if LOOP is not specified?
If so, then the command above makes the script self-terminating after 30 loops, rather than extending its life to wait as long as needed. I admire 'self-terminating' as a principle in looping scripts :), but is this what was intended?
No, WaitForPort waits for 10 seconds by default which was way too small value for my wireless PB at least. With the loop=30 it waits for 30 seconds, which was enough in my cases, but could of course be set to bigger too if felt like that.
