           Summary: kopete refuses to connect after the connection was lost
           Product: kopete
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kopete-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: sven.burmeister at gmx.net


Version:            (using KDE 4.1.96)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

If one is connected to a jabber server and the connection is lost, e.g. your
ISP disconnects you. Kopete will not react to this instantly, so while your
router reconnects and internet is working again, kopete is still "using" the
old connection.

If one goes offline before kopete times out, which is a matter of minutes, not
seconds and then tries to get back online again, a grey pop-up at the bottom of
the screen informs the user that connecting is not possible because of a
network failure. I guess it tries to use some old connection or asks some
service which is not up-to-date.

Internet works, yet kopete refuses to connect for some more minutes. Restarting
does not help, only waiting. After something that causes this timed out/gets
updated, one can connect again.
