In the last week or so I've noticed my green presence indicator flashing red intermittently and when that happens, I get a 'unable to connect to one or more accounts' message. If I happen to be doing a video call with someone on another Nokia tablet at the time, the connection is dropped and I have to re-initiate the call. I have no problems with wifi interruptions when it disconnects while I'm surfing the net or streaming youtube/internet radio.

It happens intermittently and I've not been able to discern a pattern. It drops for a few seconds, sometimes a minute or so and then the light turns a solid green again. I've recently upgraded my Tomato firmware to the latest version 1.17 and was thinking that might be the problem because before it was done, I had no problems but am not sure this is the reason for the recent troubles with my N800.

I've searched through the forums & googled the web to see if anyone has had the same problem. I've tried various things people have suggested like deleting and re-adding my google talk account, disabling psm, changing my router's beacon & DTIM settings, changing channels, even performing a reset on my router's configuration, all to no avail.

I'm a Linux noob so even though I've done dmesgs on xterm, I'm not really sure what they mean. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

N800 OS2008 with Linksys WRT54GL Tomato firmware version 1.17

My tablet shows the same symptoms from time to time and it's really annoying since I know GoogleTalk is working perfectly well.

I can confirm the same behaviour. I also have my own xmpp IM server (same protocol as google talk) and it will drop for a few seconds at random times. I have other idle connections such as VoIP that don't do that. It seems to be xmpp related on my device. If I open a full xmpp client like pidgeon it doesn't drop so it appears to be the builtin xmpp connection that is having trouble.

does anyone know if this is going to be fixed in the next version? (is it solved in the RTCOMM Beta?)

i have this problem too, but just another reason why I hope this new release of OS2008 coming out with the WiMAX will turn my N810 into a flawless device

I doubt the problem is with google, because I keep gmail open on my laptop and never lose a connection. I did install RTCOMM Beta, and so I'm guessing it's something in that program causing the issues.

^actually the issue seems to be with the bundled xmpp. A stand alone xmpp app works fine but not the included xmpp app. The presence capabilities is one of the primary features for me but I won't enable xmpp because of the disconnect errors. This is a repeatable problem so I'm confident it is being looked at and hopefully for the next update.
