Better handle connectivity loss about beagle-im

[hantu85]

Beagle uses internally network connectivity detection framework provided by Apple that should detect disconnection and automatically reconnect.

However, due to described issue, I do think that the issue is not with your connection to your wifi (that would be detected by macOS and Apple framework), but with the router providing internet connection to the wifi that you are using. Due to that, failed connection is a lot harder to detect.

As for possible solutions, we already have support for Stream Management and ping should also be supported. Right now we are in the middle of preparations for a new version that would contain a lot of changes internally and should also improve connectivity detection.

I'm leaving this issue open to verify on the new version of the app (before it will be released) that it contains ping support and that is properly works.

Yes, I described it poor. Indeed, the wifi connection stays on, but the internet is intermittently (un)reachable. I don't take the train that often but I guess I can reproduce at home by unplugging/replugging the optic fiber from my home router for tests. :)
