Pidgin - Ping timeouts

Saturday, March 27, 2010 | Published in | 0 comments

I'm using Pidgin as my universal chat client. But recently, Pidgin had a problem which was it continued to disconnect periodically when I was using it with gtalk. One of my best friends has asked me once "Hey, What are you doing. Have you started to play a game by going online and offline" :)

First, I thought it was a problem with the Internet connection. But later, I realized that there is something to do with Pidgin instead of the Internet connection. So I opened the debug window of Pidgin and looked at carefully to know what is going on. I saw the following error.


Since the error is with jabber.org, I set the file transfer proxies to a blank in the Modify Account window as follows.


Now it seems the problem has gone. Try this out if you have the same problem.
