[network] Ping response state changes are slow

[network] appears to be slow in updates using Ping and the network binding to detect if my TV has been turned on or off, as indicated by successful (ON) pings or failed pings (OFF)

Expected Behavior

When the TV is switched on, Ping responses should be immediate or close to when pinging from a standard computer on my network and they are. The item state in OH2 should update almost immediately to reflect it being online or not.

Current Behavior

When using the network binding to detect the state change of an item as being online or offline, the state change can take up to 1 minute, despite the ping responses occurring and being successful. Changing the timers to many different figures makes no difference.

My current network is made up of a Cisco 3945 Router and Cisco 3560E Gigabit Switch, all ports are running Port Fast.

Possible Solution

Unknown

Steps to Reproduce (for Bugs)

Turn TV on using remote or using the HabPanel Switch item for this device
Observe state using karaf console

Context

I use the state of the item in rules which trigger scenes for my home Theatre, as the state is showing OFF, when its actually been on for 10seconds or more, the rule fails.

Your Environment

TV, OpenHAB 2.4.0 Snapshot currently all on the same Gigabit POE Cisco 3560. This issue occured on previous hardware also, a TPLink Gigabit switch so its definitely independent of network hardware.
