os.chdir("/home/anna/scripts")
workbook = xlrd.open_workbook('zyxeldslams.xlsx')
worksheet = workbook.sheet_by_name('Sheet1')
 
#try:
for x in range(1,375):
    column1 = (worksheet.cell(x,0).value).decode('ascii')
    column2 = (worksheet.cell(x,1).value).decode('ascii')
    column3 = str(worksheet.cell(x,2).value).decode('utf-8')
    try:
        telNetConnection(column1,column2,column3)
    except:
         print "Connection time out"
