Intermittent Wi-Fi Connectivity Issue with usbmuxd2 Causing Loss of Device Detection on iOS 15.x and 16.x

[bond2bill]

Recently, I deployed usbmuxd2 for 50 iOS devices, versions 15.x and 16.x, and I have observed the following issue:

Whenever the Wi-Fi connection is lost and then re-established, usbmuxd2 no longer recognizes these devices. Restarting avahi does not resolve the problem. Due to the sometimes unstable Wi-Fi signal, which may temporarily disconnect and then reconnect, usbmuxd2 loses its management over the devices. Each time this happens, I have to restart the usbmuxd2 service to make the devices detectable again.

After about 24 hours of operation, out of 50 devices, sometimes only 30, 40, or even just 20 devices remain connected to usbmuxd2.

I also can't continuously restart usbmuxd2 as it disrupts the current connections with iOS, leading to instability, which is not viable for deploying automation.

Can someone help me resolve this issue?
