Pull Request Overview
This PR increases the delay in the OnChange method from 100 to 400 milliseconds to allow iOS network state transitions to settle before the ConnectivityChanged event is fired.
- Increase delay in OnChange to resolve unreliable event triggering on iOS
- Tested on multiple platforms (iOS, Android, Windows, Mac)

- Consider correcting the spelling of 'artifical' to 'artificial' in the comment for clarity.
// Add in artifical delay so the connection status has time to change

Issue Details:
The Connectivity.ConnectivityChanged event is not triggered for iOS platform when toggling wifi (turning it on or off)
Root Cause:
When toggling Wifi (turning it on or off). The native iOS triggers OnChange() method, Inside this method, a delay of 100 milliseconds was used to allow the system time to update the network state before checking connectivity. The OnChange() method when compare the current NetworkAccess with the previous NetworkAccess value after the 100 milli seond delay the current NetworkAccess value is not updated and still it remains previous value. So, here the 100 milli seconds delay is not enough to settle the internal network state transition.
Description of Change:
To address this, the delay was increased from 100 milliseconds to 400 milliseconds. This adjustment was tested on the iOS simulator and provides sufficient time for the system's network state to fully stabilize. As a result, the NetworkAccess value is updated correctly, and the ConnectivityChanged event is triggered reliably.
Tested the behavior in the following platforms.
