As Larry said, the most probable cause is a network problem.

The driver could also have a short default timeout, but it is
difficult to say  more, as you did not provide with any context, such
as, does it take place on the same machine or is it a machine to
machine link, which language was used to write the app, which driver is
in use, etc.
