check for popen2 modul:
lib/module-popen2.html
lib/popen3-objects.html

poll() and wait() seems appropiate for your task.

(but also simple os.system should wait until execution of the connecting
command. Does this command possibly return it's exit status before it's
job is done (because it is working in the background)? In this case popen2
isn't better. You need actively check if the connection is done.)
