1291900 2012-07-31 12:44:00 Hi all,

Re: overseas chatting .

We have ADSL2+ the standard one think it is FS/512 or something . .
The Skype software reports that my connection is slow . At times the video chat would pause for a while until something speeds up . . .

If I am Skyping with someone at home here, it is fine .
They have reported that when they Skype with pple in NZ it is slow, so I'm not the only one .
Do you guys get this?

1291901 2012-07-31 13:09:00 Is the latest version installed? 5.10.0.116? Speedy Gonzales (78)
1291902 2012-07-31 13:22:00 Yup Nomad (952)
1291903 2012-07-31 14:11:00 The data has to be sent further with longer delays when going overseas so that may be why. Do all you can to speed up your connection but it may not help much. Agent_24 (57)
1291904 2012-08-02 10:35:00 Try Skypeing Sunday mornings. Had a great conversation with my son and his family on holiday in NY this past Sunday, good pictures, no dropouts and they were connected through the hotels wi-fi. Probably a low traffic time NZ might have something to do with it. PPp (9511)
