button press detection hit&miss #6

hi matt,

sorry to bother you again. for a few days I'm having problems with the button press detection. It sometimes works but most times doesn't. when inspecting packages with wireshark they seem to arrive properly as expected. what I discovered though is that sometimes the button sends 2 dhcp packages and sometimes only 1. it seems to me that detection only works when 2 dhcp packages are sent. is that possible? is there a way around this?

thanks again for your help!

Yes! I've noticed this too. I need to rework the gem to take account of this somehow.. I haven't had time to look into it yet. If you get to it before me, feel free to issue a pull-request 😄

As much as I would love to help, I'm a power user at best. I wouldn't even know where to start.
