      As of now, we are not detecting/reporting network changes on Linux. This means that in case if there is a download in progress and a network change happens, the download simply hangs until it times out, even if the original network is restored in the meantime.

      It is possible to avoid the "hangtime" by setting a timeout in QNetworkAccessManager, but it is not necessarily easy to predict the correct value of the timeout.

      It would be nicer, if we could detect and report the network change and immediately close the connection (just like Windows does).
