I was chatting with @es_ferret about this on the PC Controller topic...
My suspicion is some logging may have been added to the platform to indicate the host is unreachable, not an unreasonable change if that is what has happened, but I have not sought to confirm that. In @es_ferret 's case the host was indeed turned off, so it made sense for the log to appear. Is that true in your case as well?
There is also a setting in the PC Controller about the time between connection retries, which you could adjust if you wanted, to try and reduce some of the noise, but this would obviously have an impact on recovery time from a legitimate temporary drop in a connection.
