Hi Igor, Which Google Pages and iGoogle are both Google services, the bandwidth quota on Google Pages still applies. Since this quota is fairly low, even moderate usage of a gadget file hosted on Google Pages is enough to reach the limit (and cause the behavior you see).
To answer your second point, the automigration will not work for gadgets. Your best option is to create a copy of the gadget XML file on another host, and request an alias here: http://code.google.com/p/igoogle-legacy/issues/detail?id=551 (note that this URL is -only- for request aliases from Google Pages, the regular form: http://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?hl=en&formkey=cEhGZVVmVUNQVmI1N2lvOW5nOGJNUFE6MA.. applies in other cases).
