Bug Description
The plugin is nice - as long as you have a stable network connection to your mldonkey server.
Nowhere in the plugin there seems to be a way to handle or at least force a renewal of the server link.
Once the link goes down - e.g. because you take your notebook to work and back or you send your notebook to sleep for the night - the plugin keeps displaying the last valid values forever. Even setting a new server in the prefs does not recover the display - gkrellm has to be completely restarted to get the plugin to work again.
This disability is a serious downer for everyone wanting to actually use the monitor for extended amounts of time. A software that relies on a network connection should be able to detect a connection failure and reinstate the link once it is broken.
