Rep Power: 4   |  Problem with yahoo IM protocol.... So I was using Pidgin for all im networks. Now i've shifted to Trillian astra. The problem is that when i'm chatting with a yahoo buddy, the messages just stop coming from his/her side and then arrive in a clump some time later. I noticed this crappy behavior in Pidgin as well as Trillian. Now since the same issue is there with both of these clients (Trillian being a very well developed closed source app), and nobody else reporting this bug anywhere else, it makes me wonder is it a problem with Airtel??? Can someone please test it out as well?? Its getting on my nerves! Thanks! the pings to yahoo pager ( cn.scs.msg.yahoo.com) server look like this Reply from 208.67.219.132: bytes=32 time=305ms TTL=52 Reply from 208.67.219.132: bytes=32 time=308ms TTL=52 Reply from 208.67.219.132: bytes=32 time=307ms TTL=52 Reply from 208.67.219.132: bytes=32 time=308ms TTL=52 Request timed out.

Rep Power: 9  | in the pidgin site it says "Yahoo issues are fixed in 2.5.8. " which implies there were certain issues earlier. try the latest pidgin version. |

.... i think the rain is the problem...its happening for the past 3 days i think.... the timing out of the ping is there for every website every IM network (with the above stated problem for gtalk as well)... everywhere... so i guess this is a network issue?

Rep Power: 4 | turns out that the torrent client (even while paused), was the problem. as soon as i exit it, the connection behaves again... peace! |
