No, sorry, there's no useful information on the events or on any log; I
just start it manually when it fails.

My guess is that since networking is very slow to get started on my
computer, and that's a feature of my network card / driver (I can see
the link go up on the switch long after boot up, after Windows starts in
fact, about when the login window appears) and the service dependency
doesn't help (that's a feature of Windows, it probably is starting the
service before the network is really up) the first logon attempt fails
and somehow autossh gives up, after bootup it behaves as it should
reestablishing the connection when lost, but not on first start, that's
why I guess the network is not really up and that makes the difference.
