Describe the bug
When the network changes (e.g., enabling/disabling a VPN, switching Wi-Fi), VRCX fails to re-authenticate and throws a "Missing credentials" error. The only way to recover is to fully restart VRCX.

To Reproduce

Launch VRCX and log in normally
Change your network connection (e.g., enable a VPN or switch networks)
Observe the 401 Unauthorized : "Missing credentials" error

Expected behavior
VRCX should automatically detect the network change and attempt to re-authenticate with the stored credentials, without requiring a manual restart. This would improve user experience in scenarios involving VPNs, network switches, or brief connectivity drops.
