[Bug 1555751] [NEW] Some apps require a restart after switching to/from Wifi/Cellular to reconnect to the network

 

Public bug reported:

Some apps require a restart after switching to/from Wifi/Cellular to
reconnect to the network

What happened:
1) Ensure wifi is connect
2) Start Dekko
3) Refresh the inbox (notice the bouncing/loading bar stops eventually)
4) Disable wifi so you are on cellular
5) Refresh the inbox (notice the bouncing/loading bar stays continuously)

Note
- if after step 5 you restart the app it is fine
- this only occurs on certain apps, specifically Dekko and Telegram are the ones that i've noticed so far. (Both of which i assume try to have a long running open network connection?)

What I expected to happen:
At step 5) for the connection to automatically change to using Cellular and not require an app restart
