I've got no expertise in networking, but this sounds like a "solution" that just conceals a problem and could actively thwart troubleshooting other issues

There's two PLCs that need to keep data synced between them. Using a cached connection cuts the cycle time by a lot, but our IT team absolutely sucks at keeping a stable network so the actual connection route between them changes every fucking day.
So my workaround is to ditch the cached connection when a message fails and wait for something in the other panel to establish a new connection, then cache that to use until the next time it fails.
You're not wrong, the real issue is our network is shit, but I have no power or control over that.
