Is it tunable from python for a particular socket or is it in OS

Why do you want to tune it?
Because currently if I unplug my internet cable, my client detect
connectut after several minutes, and I'd like it to detect it faster.
Do you really think that your OS designers and IP stack designers did it
wrong and put wrong default values?
Of course not, but this timout really depends on the application you do.
I understand that in some cases it's good to have longer timeouts.
If so, you would know why these values are wrong and what to put there,
which you seem not know.
