How can we help?

Some users in production are being unsubscribe from the socket without us really knowing why. Their internet access is supposedly stable... I feel I am missing some cases of automatic unsubscribe so I must ask : what are the different cases where the socket might trigger the onUnsubscribe function ?

Here are the different declarations:

/**CLIENT CODE connection **/
return this.socketClient.connect({
	reconnect: true, 	//whether the client should try to reconnect
	delay: 2000,		//time in milliseconds to wait between each reconnection attempt, cumulative
	maxDelay: 15000,	//the maximum delay time in milliseconds between reconnections
	retries: 10		//number of reconnection attempts
})
/** SERVER REGISTER **/
await server.register(
  {
    plugin: Nes,
    options: {
      heartbeat: {
        interval: 15000,
        timeout: 5000
      },
      auth: false
    }
  },
  {
    routes: process.env.ROOT_PATH ? {
      prefix: ROOT_PATH
    } : {}
  }
);


this.serverFromRequest.subscription(this.subscribingPath , {
          onSubscribe: (socket, path, params)=>{
            /** SOME CODE that has nothing to do with network **/
            //Managing page reloading by clearing a timeout
            if (this.onUnsubscribeTimeout) {clearTimeout(this.onUnsubscribeTimeout)}
          },
          onUnsubscribe: (socket, path, params)=>{
           /** SOME CODE that has nothing to do with network **/
                const unloadTimeout =  15000;
                this.onUnsubscribeTimeout = setTimeout(()=>{
                  
                 /** SOME CODE saying what should happen when socket is closed ( basically send message to client saying Chat is closed)
                }, unloadTimeout)
          }
        })

What do you think ? Is the fact maxDelay very closed to unloadTimeout could explain the issue ? Are my connect options not precise enough or too low ? Or the heartbeat maybe ?

What would be good production values according to your knowledge ? Regards and thank you for nes !
