just a suggestion,

1st can you plug the PRIMARY back into the network and see if the standby can synchronize with the primary.

the primary or standby does not see the dead connection with the server and is waiting for redo info.

start looking into

SQLNET.EXPIRE_TIME (Dead Connection Detection)
+ tcp_ip_abort_interval (default=480000, 8 mins. on Solaris)
+ tcp_rexmit_interval_max (def.=1 min)

Changing the tcp_keep_alive setting to a lower number will improve this timing but is usually not feasible to apply to the whole system.
