XMPP and ADSL modem-router problem

[Vangelis Katsikaros]

Hello

I am a strange problem with XMPP (which I don't think it's pidgin's
fault) but I have nowhere else to ask.

I have Pidgin 2.6.2 (libpurple 2.6.2) on ubuntu 9.10. My ISP gave me a
new ADSL modem-router [1] and since I have the following.

1) I have the XMPP (jabber) account disabled.
2) I enable it and I get the following debug info [2].
3) somewhere at (14:42:29) the router freezes completely. It freezes so
badly that I can't log into it, even if I unplug/replug the ethernet
cables. The only option to make it work again is to close it and open it
again.

I know that this is not a pidgin problem, but I would like any opinions
on the issue. I know there were some issues with google talk and DNS in
the past, but I don't know if this is related.

Any insight would be appreciated,
Vangelis
