Answer 1

See pjebs comment on Jan 5 on Github.

Method1 :

if (error.code == -1005)
{
    dispatch_async(dispatch_get_global_queue(DISPATCH_QUEUE_PRIORITY_HIGH, 0), ^{

        dispatch_group_t downloadGroup = dispatch_group_create();
        dispatch_group_enter(downloadGroup);
        dispatch_group_wait(downloadGroup, dispatch_time(DISPATCH_TIME_NOW, 5000000000)); // Wait 5 seconds before trying again.
        dispatch_group_leave(downloadGroup);
        dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
            //Main Queue stuff here
            [self redoRequest]; //Redo the function that made the Request.
        });
    });

    return;
}

Also some suggests to re-connect to the site,

i.e. Firing the POST request TWICE

Solution: Use a method to do connection to the site, return (id), if the network connection was lost, return to use the same method.

Method 2

-(id) connectionSitePost:(NSString *) postSender Url:(NSString *) URL {
     // here set NSMutableURLRequest =>  Request

    NSHTTPURLResponse *UrlResponse = nil;
    NSData *ResponseData = [[NSData alloc] init];

    ResponseData = [NSURLConnection sendSynchronousRequest:Request returningResponse:&UrlResponse error:&ErrorReturn];

     if ([UrlResponse statusCode] != 200) {

          if ([UrlResponse statusCode] == 0) {

                  /**** here re-use method ****/
                  return [self connectionSitePost: postSender Url: URL];
          }

     } else {
          return ResponseData;
     }

}
