**My configuration:**  
NodeRed v3.0.2 running on Raspberry Pi 4 with 8gb memory  
node-red-contrib-blynk-iot v1.0.0

I am using the node-red-contrib-blynk-iot to connect NR to my Blynk screen running on my iPhone 13, running IoS 16.6.1

**Issue that I'm facing**  
The connection between the blynk node and it's server keeps dropping regularly.

The NodeRed log looks like this:

Could anyone please suggest what needs to be done to prevent this?
