When Guacamole detects that the network connection is slow or hanging, it should acknowledge this and unobtrusively notify the user. Lacking such notification, slow networks or remote desktop failures look like Guacamole bugs, and are frequently reported as such.

Further, the total lack of a network connection is handled within JavaScript, but the error code is not recognized by the Guacamole client. The unknown error is thus translated into a generic "An internal error has occurred ..." message, which is obviously incorrect:
