Router scheduled reboot causes Bond to stop working in HomeKit

[BobbieVx]

My router is scheduled to reboot at 5am a few times a week and recently every time it does the Bond stops responding in HomeKit. This started happening only a week or two ago and was never an issue previously. The Bond app still works just fine after the router is rebooted. It's like homebridge never bothers to check if the Bond is back online after one time of it losing connection.

I have a similar issue, though I have no idea what is causing it.
For me this happens every night. A reboot of Homebridge resolves the issue usually.

I have the same issue. I've put the bond plugin into a child process, so at least I can reboot just the child process, but I haven't automated that reboot...

I seem to be having this issue as well. Could be a router restart, power blip, etc... Homebridge comes up and cannot find the Bond. Never retries. It could legitimately not be available during a restart due to a power blip as other network equipment or the Bond itself could not yet be back "up". A connect retry with a backoff seems like a fix here.
