Monitor Android Network Connectivity Correctly

A connected Wi-Fi or cellular network is not proof that your server is reachable. Observe Android’s default network and capabilities, expose conservative UI state, and let each request handle DNS, TLS, timeout, authentication, and server failures independently.

A stable address is usually safest as a DHCP reservation. When the host itself must own a static address, identify the active renderer, choose an address outside the dynamic pool, validate Netplan syntax, use rollback-capable apply, and verify link, route, DNS, and remote access separately.

Git curl 56 and GnuTLS recv error (-54) usually mean the HTTPS response ended before Git received a complete packfile. Start with a clean retry and network diagnosis, then reduce the transfer or change transport—without blindly increasing http.postBuffer.
