Rerequest until...

I want to visit some sites very urgently today. But our ISP behaved very inconsistent. Sometimes it was on and sometimes I saw nothing in browser. It happens everywhere. I have to keep on rerequesting the page until I get it on browser.

Can't we have an option "Rerequest after [.....] sec. until page downloads." in "Options..." menu item? It can also have an option of "Try [3] times." or infinitely.

       This could compund the problem of server overload if that's what's causing the initial problem. Maybe have a maximum of ten rerequests at ten second intervals? Basically a good idea though.
