 When a new IP address has been issued by a DHCP server, the running
 applications lose their network connectivity and needs to be restarted.
 Ping is not affected. WebPositive, wget, Visions etc are affected.

 '''How to reproduce:'''
 * Connect to a DHCP server that issues a new IP on
 DHCP_RELEASE/DHCP_DISCOVER (DD-WRT v24-sp2 does that).
 * Launch WebPositive and load a web page.
 * Unplug network cable.
 * Plug network cable.
 * Check syslog and make sure that you got a different IP address.
 * Reload the web page in WebPositive (won't load).
 * Restart WebPositive. Load a web page (will load).

 '''Expected behaviour:'''

 WebPositive should be able to load web pages after a new IP address has
 been obtained without being restarted.

 See #7380 for a description of the problem and log files.

 See #7346 for the reason why a new DHCP address is obtained.
