Use Case - Commuincation Link breaks

I would like peoples thoughts on the following.

Take as an example of a Web Based shopping with the following Use Cases
(amongst others).

- Place Order
- Modify Order
- Arrange Shipment
- Check Order Status

Now all of these Use Cases assume that there is a valid connection. I
am wondering how to apply the case when there is an failure in the web
connection. Now this could happen at any time. Do I have to put an
alternate flow in every stage of the main flow of each Use Case. The
consequences of a connection failure would be different depending when
it happens.

I am using this as Web connection an example, but it would apply to any
system that has a "breakable" connection (WiFi, BlueTooth, Serial
Connection etc)

Thanks
