My iChat can't connect to connect to Gtalk suddenly
It has been working since I configured it 5 years ago up until recently, when my landlord upgraded the internet package. However, I can surf the net fine and my Apple Mail is connecting fine to my Gmail. So far, I have tried:
1. Restarting the computer (worked when I restarted the first time, but after a while it got disconnected again)
2. Restarting the modem and router
3. Reconfigured gtalk on iChat (delete account and added account again)
Not too sure what else to do. I'm running Mac 10.6.8 Snow Leopard, and iChat 5.0.3. Is it because I haven't updated to Mavericks? But it worked up until the change of internet package. I've been hesitant to update to Mavericks cos I've been reading lots of bad reviews about it, and I haven't had the time to back up all my files.
The error message I am getting is "iChat can't connect with the Jabber account "xxxx@gmail.com". Could not connect to server host talk.google.com". The current server settings are server: talk.google.com. Using SSL on port 5223. "Warn before sending password insecurely" is ticked.
Any advice?
