Comment 6 for bug 225505

I have the same problems. I use laptop and connect to different networks. When Network gets down and I'm connecting to other network (from wifi to ethernet for example), then pidgin can't reconnect. Only closing the Pidgin and openning again solve the problem.
The easyiest way to reproduce the problem is switch off the radio wifi before openning pidgin, so there is no internet connection. After connecting to network not every accont are connecting. The Gadu-Gadu is, but it connects to server by IP. The google talk isn't connecting. Even when I changed status to disconnected and again to connected, the only way is to close the Pidign program and open it again.

It's realy annoying.
