Firebase Listener does not identify or resume connection after idle time

My project is to identify whether the client is online or offline. I use the code made available in the Android-Firebase documentation, which uses an EventListener in ".info / connected".

// since I can connect from multiple devices, we store each connection instance separately
// any time that connectionsRef's value is null (i.e. has no children) I am offline
final FirebaseDatabase database = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance();
final DatabaseReference myConnectionsRef = database.getReference("users/joe/connections");

// stores the timestamp of my last disconnect (the last time I was seen online)
final DatabaseReference lastOnlineRef = database.getReference("/users/joe/lastOnline");

final DatabaseReference connectedRef = database.getReference(".info/connected");
connectedRef.addValueEventListener(new ValueEventListener() {
  @Override
  public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot snapshot) {
    boolean connected = snapshot.getValue(Boolean.class);
    if (connected) {
      DatabaseReference con = myConnectionsRef.push();

      // when this device disconnects, remove it
      con.onDisconnect().removeValue();

      // when I disconnect, update the last time I was seen online
      lastOnlineRef.onDisconnect().setValue(ServerValue.TIMESTAMP);

      // add this device to my connections list
      // this value could contain info about the device or a timestamp too
      con.setValue(Boolean.TRUE);
    }
  }

  @Override
  public void onCancelled(DatabaseError error) {
    System.err.println("Listener was cancelled at .info/connected");
  }
});

This method correctly identifies when the user terminates or reopens the application or when minor disconnections occur on the internet. However, I did a test turn off the Wifi of the device for a time of 2 minutes, it is identified in the Firebase Database that is not connected, but when I turn on the Wifi, resuming the internet connection, Firebase does not recognize the active connection, appears as if the user still remained inactive.

This code snippet was inserted into the onCreate method of my MainActivity.

Can anyone tell me why this occurs?

As Franks says, if you enable debug logging for the client, will be able for sure to see the state of the connection, whether the client is reestablishing its connection or not.

public synchronized void setLogLevel (Logger.Level logLevel)

By default, this is set to INFO. This includes any internal errors (ERROR) and any security debug messages (INFO) that the client receives. Set to DEBUG to turn on the diagnostic logging, and NONE to disable all logging.
