           Summary: Skype account disconnected with "Network error" on
                    connection switch
           Product: Chat & Call & SMS
           Version: 5.0/(1.2009.42-11)
          Platform: N900
        OS/Version: Maemo
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Low
         Component: Presence
        AssignedTo: rtcomm at maemo.org
        ReportedBy: crolix at ovi.com
         QAContact: presence-bugs at maemo.bugs


SOFTWARE VERSION:
1.2009.42-11

EXACT STEPS LEADING TO PROBLEM: 
1. Add a Google Talk, Skype and MSN account via Settings -> VoIP and IM
accounts.
2. Enable internet connection and check via Status menu -> Availability that
all three accounts are connected successfully.
3. Wait till the network connection is switched from Wi-Fi to 3G or from 3G to
Wi-Fi.

EXPECTED OUTCOME:
When the connection is switched, all three accounts are automatically
reconnected as soon as the internet is available again.

ACTUAL OUTCOME:
One of the accounts gets stuck with a "Network error", while the other two
connect successfully.

REPRODUCIBILITY:
2/10

EXTRA SOFTWARE INSTALLED:
account-plugin-haze is installed in order to use MSN.

OTHER COMMENTS:
This happens to me too occasionally after a network connection change, such as
when the Wi-Fi connection is gone and the phone switches to 3G. I have an N900
and use Google Talk, Skype and MSN (to be able to use MSN I installed
account-plugin-haze).

When this happens, one of my accounts gets stuck with a "Network error", while
the other two connect successfully. I noticed that it's usually my Skype or MSN
account that gets stuck. All my accounts work fine if I connect from a PC.
Switching to different Wi-Fi networks or 3G, or simply waiting, doesn't help.
The account with the network error never recovers.

I did find a workaround for this: whenever this happens I simply reboot my
phone and it always works fine after this.
