You can simply change sys-firewall's NetVM to "none," restart sys-net,
then switch it back again. Sample script:
```
#!/bin/bash
echo "Restarting sys-net..."
qvm-prefs -s sys-firewall netvm none
sleep 3
qvm-shutdown sys-net
sleep 3
qvm-start sys-net
sleep 3
qvm-prefs -s sys-firewall netvm sys-net
sleep 1
echo "Done."
```
