Comment:

 Here is what is going on according to the logs when it isn't working:

 {{{

 vadim at ASUS-M51TA sees the incoming connection, but it appears to be coming
 from 192.168.1.2, which doesn't match any known buddies, so the connection
 is dropped.

 It's pretty odd, but it is a problem with your network configuration (I
 have no idea what specifically).
