Hi ikseek,
We are working on this issue for the next beta that should be out in a few days. In the mean time, setting a small wake delay appears to resolve the problem. To do this, open up a Command Prompt or Run Dialog (Windows Key + R) and paste in the following:
"C:\Program Files\Viscosity\Viscosity.exe" SetPref ConnectOnWakeDelay 5
This will add a 5 second delay between your PC waking up and Viscosity attempting to reconnect and should resolve the issue.
Let us know how you go.
Regards,
Eric
