BlackBerry bearer plugin: check whether device is online several times

This is supposed to workaround a race condition in the underlying
netstatus API: Sometimes we get an event that the Wifi interface
changed, but it is not up, e.g. no gateway (yet). In that case we need
to check back (currently: 300 ms) whether the interface has come
up or not.
This commit can be reverted again once the race condition in the
netstatus API has been resolved.
