What?

  1. connect 2 peers
  2. switch network on one of the peers (e.g. connect to a different wifi net or just turn wifi off/on)
  3. peer will attempt to reconnect but will fail in some cases
  4. connection won't be established anymore

Why?
When a peer goes offline (e.g. wi-fi network switch) a connection to signal drops. While it will be reestablished later, a process of Connection.Restart() has been already triggered and an attempt to signal fails. Restart doesn't continue.
