Hello, when I lose my internet connection, my shell buffer is no
longer useable and there is a message:

Process shell exited abnormally with code 255

I would like to have the process restarted for that shell buffer via
some command instead of killing the buffer and typing M-x shell again.

You can't bring back the dead process, but you can certainly reuse the
buffer.  Just type "M-x shell" *without* killing the buffer first.
