Hi Terry,
I think this is the same issue as has been reported here that I am
looking into:
http://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=19656
At this point in time, issuing "tsNetLibUrlReuseConnection false" is the
best solution, as this will stop tsNet from trying to re-use an existing
open connection to a server.
If you are using tsNet functions directly, the equivalent option can be
set by using tSettings["no_reuse"] to true and passing that to the
function. For example:
local tHeaders, tRecvHeaders, tResult, tBytes, tSettings
put true into tSettings["no_reuse"]
put tsNetGetSync("http://www.livecode.com";, tHeaders, tRecvHeaders,
tResult, tBytes, tSettings) into tData
Best Regards,
Charles

OK, I think I have a workaround although I’m not sure whether it is a good
solution or not.
If I include the line...
tsNetLibUrlReuseConnection false
...in my preopenstack handler then the delay/hang seems to disappear – i.e. I
get an almost immediate response if the url isn’t available. I’m not at all
sure what this achieves but it seems that a new connection that can’t connect
doesn’t experience the same problem as an existing connection that was
previously successful.
Anyway, panic averted for now but any insights into the best way to deal with
this stuff would be appreciated.

OK – I have a bit of a serious issue on iOS where if I lose wifi
connectivity the first attempt to get data from a url causes problems.
I’m attempting to upload a file to Dropbox (that stuff all works fine) and I do an initial test to see whether the device is online (by trying to access a url). If it is I proceed with the upload, if not I just save a local copy of the file. Anyway, the first time I do the test the request seems to take forever (minutes?) – which I don’t have (I need the request to be completed within a few seconds). The second time around is ok though.
Any ideas on how I prevent this initial ‘hang’. Is it possible to set a shorter timeout or something?
