I was playing (and at a critical stage) in this game en.lichess.org/LaqGFaBSt3Vi when I got the Reconnecting message in red at the top of my screen.
I tried to refresh the page but got the Lichess is down message.
My wife was watching tv through internet with no problems at the time.
I tried another site, (for seconds) and had internet.
I came back to Lichess, and refreshed again - was taken back to the game and I had lost because "white had left the game"
I suspect this was caused by a problem with the Lichess server. I have had similar issues in the past but always blamed my service in the past.
If I get the reconnecting message in future what should I do
