Basically every day I have the following in logs:

> 10-16 00:46:05.380  5200  5568 D WireGuard/GoBackend/xyz: peer(8MoP…XPVc) - Handshake did not complete after 5 seconds, retrying (try 2)
> 10-16 00:46:05.381  5200  5568 D WireGuard/GoBackend/xyz: peer(8MoP…XPVc) - Sending handshake initiation
> 10-16 00:46:10.468  5200  5678 D WireGuard/GoBackend/xyz: peer(8MoP…XPVc) - Handshake did not complete after 5 seconds, retrying (try 3)
> 10-16 00:46:10.469  5200  5678 D WireGuard/GoBackend/xyz: peer(8MoP…XPVc) - Sending handshake initiation
This is happening on Android 14 when connected to Wi-Fi.

It is definitely not a loss of Wi-Fi or Internet connectivity, I turn off and immediately turn on the VPN connection and it connects instantly and successfully, it is just those retries that are not succeeding.

Is this a know issue, maybe there is a workaround?

I have seen similar reports online that seem to be related to network connectivity, which is not the case here or else reconnection would fail too.
