Will Google pick up the connection again when it's available? And could that theoretically happen at any moment? If so, it doesn't seem completely unreasonable

If so, it doesn't seem completely unreasonable to communicate in this way. (I agree it could be communicated better)
The system is not quite hung, but it's not doing great.
- jbay808 6y agoI had disconnected my router, so I don't think Google was going to pick up the connection again. At the very least, there's no sense in which the page loading (or map route finding, etc) was farther along at t=2 than it was at t=1 when the connection was removed, so for Google to be telling me it's making progress in that situation is a transparent lie. Unless the information they're trying to convey with the progress bar is simply that "time is passing", which I'm well aware of.
