Comment (by grahamperrin):

 We have what may be a similar bug with Waterfox 56.2.6:

 * [https://github.com/MrAlex94/Waterfox/issues/847| Periodic disconnects,
 probably involving go-webrtc · Issue #847 · MrAlex94/Waterfox]

 – based on the linked discussions, it's possible that the issue
 (regression?) began with 56.2.2,
 https://github.com/MrAlex94/Waterfox/tree/56.2.2

 Towards a fix for Waterfox: please, should we look first at the commit
 under (Tor fix) comment:61 above?

 Or, better to identify a comparable changeset in Mozilla Central?

 If it helps: Waterfox 56.0 was based on Firefox 56.0.2.

 TIA
