I am running Newt on a TrueNAS server, I have tried both through the app catalog as well as regular docker deployment and encounter this issue with either approach. At least once a day Newt will report:

A connection is never re-established, but if I restart the container there is zero issue reconnecting.

The drop is not at a consistent time and there are no connection issues with any other services.
