Skype account keeps disconnecting after 30 seconds

hi guys,
its driving me nuts.  my skype account keeps disconnecting after 30 seconds and i haven't even done anything.  it does it on windows, and on my iphone too.
what's going on? is this a problem with skype?  i've seen similar posts. and i'm using skype 6.20

That generally means there is an issue with your Microsoft account.  You may have to verify some settings in your account to make sure a configuration isn't causing it.  The only solution I'm aware of is temporarily unlinking your account.  I do not know if reconnecting it will resolve the issue right away.

    'nick' is your nickname which you entered when you set up the IRC chat. You can register your nickname by entering "/msg nickserv register <password> <email address>"
    Then when you start next time enter "/msg nickserv identify <password>"
    You can get a list of nickserv commands by entering "/msg nickserv help"

  • My VPN keeps disconnecting after downloaded iOS 8. How do I fix this?

    my VPN keeps disconnecting after I have downloaded iOS 8 on my iPad. Why is this happening? How can I fix it?

    I am having similar issues. IPad mini ios 8.0.2. VPN connection will drop unexpectedly. Actually, it drops coincide with an active application that uses a lot of memory. Such as a web browser. I can 100% replicate behavior by connecting VPN, going to Safari, and opening Facebook. If I don't use an app that is memory-intensive, VPN stays connected indefinitely.

  • Skype/Facetime keeps disconnecting my connection?

    Skype/Facetime has always been working without any problems for me until yesterday (Mon, Feb 18 2013). Every time I'm using Skype or Facetime and I'm connected into a call, it works for a good 5 minutes or so and suddenly disconnects me on Skype & puts me offline & when it does that, it also disconnects my connection. I'm using a WIFI connection on my macbook pro but it's a locked one with a security password so only me & my family have access to this connection. I've tried checking if it was my WIFI that was causing this problem but my WIFI seem's to be perfectly fine. I'm able to use Safari or any other applications without any disconnecting problems, but when it comes to Skype/Facetime, 5 minutes into a video call, it ends the call and disconnects my wifi and I have to restart my macbook in order to make the connection work again but if I go back on Skype/Facetime, it disconnects again. I've tried updating my software and the applications and it still has the same problems.. Can anyone help me please?

    Post in the Skype forums and also on the Facetime for Mac community forum area.  There may be Skype users there too.

  • Sql Server 2008 R2 keeps disconnecting after a few minutes -- how can I prevent this?

    I already went into the Sql Server Configuration manager and set the TCPIP Keep Alive value to 0 (default setting 30000). But still, after like 5 minutes it disconnects, and I have to re-log back in. The problem with this is that I will usually have several
    #temp tables open -- then I have to re-create/populate all these #temp tables.  I'm running win7 SP1, Sql Server 2008 R2 Developer -- SP2. Is there something I can set in the registry maybe? What can I do to prevent sql server 2008 R2 Developer from disconnecting?

    I wish to continue with thanks to all for replies.  The disconnect property after Query execution is not checked. And I am not sure about not letting my computer sleep.  Sometimes I have to leave
    it for extended periods. 
    Good day Rich
    P123,
    Sometimes for monitoring we have to do actions that are one-time in order to check our assumptions. In this case I recommend that you do this check :-)
    you just need to check it once (like 24 hours), to make sure that this is the the source of the issue, or not :-)
    In any case you can use screensaver, but make sure that you do not close disks as well.
    Please inform us your result

  • RV320 Dual wan setup, wan2 keep disconnecting after a few mins.

    I have just switched out our offices rv120w for a rv320. I have set it up for dual wan with fail over. Both WANs are on static ip's. I have the settings working separately, but if i connect both connections to both WAN ports, WAN2 keeps dropping its connection. 
    It will show in the summary as 0.0.0.0 after a few seconds. I set it up, hit save and it shows both IPs in WAN1 and WAN2...as fast as i can refresh it, it will show WAN2 back to 0.0.0.0
    Any thoughts?

    as it turned out this was an issue with the ISP that has now been corrected. 
    on another note i could not change the MTU to 1500 as it would always reset to 1492....
    (latest Firmware)

  • Apogee Duet keeps disconnecting after update to Snow Leopard

    I updated to Snow Leopard (10.6.8 ) yesterday and now for some reason my Apogee Duet sound card keeps disappearing and randomly disconnecting.... It then automatically switches to my screen display audio. Very annoying.
    If i pull out the fire wire cable and reconnect, it temporarily comes back but then vanishes again without warning.
    I doubt it's anything to do with the cable because I have been using it since 2010 without any problems until yesterday...
    Any ideas on how to fix this? Please help!

    Delete Duet software package with uninstaller and install the latest software package or reset Duet?
    Or resetting NVRAM.

  • Skype calls keep disconnecting

    I'm having trouble with skype on my Surface RT. During a call it disconnects me anywhere from 2mins to 10mins into the call. I've refreshed my tablet, uninstalled & reinstalled the app. I don't have this issue with Skype on the Xbox One or when I use skype on my WP 8.1. That rules out any issues with my internet & with the other persons end.

    I use my Window Surface to connect my skype by wifi but It can not now I do not know. Althougth I reset my Surface

  • Email accounts keep disconnecting - this could be the final straw.

    Hi everyone,
    Please can someone provide me with a fix for the latest annoyance I've discovered on my Q10.
    Whenever I enter the wifi area at work, all my email accounts are taken off line. The network is NOT one of my saved networks, so I can't simply delete it. The Q10 connects to my home wifi fine.
    If anyone can tell me how to fix this I will be very grateful. As a Blackberry user of many years the Q10 is a huge disappointment (too many swipes, clicks and "gestures" to do stuff I used to be able to do with far fewer on my Bold). I really want to love this phone but unfortunately it just annoys me. 

    I had the same issue. Problem for me was that the wireless network did block some outgoing ports that are needed to send and receive emails (e.g. 25, 143, 465, 587, 993 etc).
    You can either ask the administrator of the wireless network to open up those ports, or you can disable your company WiFi in your settings.
    To do that, manually create a WiFi connection with exactly the name (SSID) of your company's WiFi. Then disable this WiFi connection. It will not connect to it again.

  • Skype keeps disconnecting my internet.

    Hello I recently just moved house and acquired BT Infinity 2. Ever since moving house and Internet provider joining skype calls keeps disconnecting my connection. I am currently on a wireless connection and have had BT Infinity since Thursday the 13th of February. If anyone could please help me I would be really happy.
    Thanks, Simon.

    I cannot currently connect to my Hub with an ethernet cable as my computer is upstairs. I do not understand how I never had this problem when I was on a 2mb download speed connection with Sky but now I have this problem on a 20mb download speed connection with BT.
    Is there anything else I can do to solve this problem, I have tried turning my hub off and on but that doesn't seem to work? Would you recommend trying the reset button to make the hub default back to factory settings? I wasnt sure whether to try this since it sounded a bit scary and I didn't want to mess things up more.
    Also while I'm here, how would I go about have an ethernet cable port put in my bedroom? Could I get an electriction to do this or would I have to get a BT Engineer to come and install me one as that would be the only way I could get a wired connection from the living room downstairs where my hub is to my bedroom upstairs?

  • Successfully connected clients disconnetcs after seconds

    Hello,
    I'm having troubles with AP541N in clustered mode.
    The problem is that clients connects successfully but get disconnected  after seconds without any visible reason.
    The AP541N is configured to authenticate the clients against a Symantec Network Access Control (SNAC) and a radius server.
    eventlog from radius server:
    "User xxxxxx was granted access."
    SNAC log:
    Client[0000000c] xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, Status Recevied(HI:PASSED, EAP:PASSED, PRO:PASSED), UID is CORRECT, Enforcer matches(HI:PASSED, EAP:PASSED, PRO:ANY), switch VLAN XXXX on switch nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn.
    client settings (Windows 7 32-bit):
    WPA2-Enterprise/AES
    EAP-Typ: secured EAP (PEAP)
    This problems happens not to all clients (all clients are Dell Latitude laptops with Intel Wifi, but different models).
    When I use eg. a D-Link USB Wifi adapter in a laptop causing troubles, the connection will work fine, no disconnects.
    I have tested with Intel driver version 13.4.0.139
    When I connect a laptop causing troubles to another access point (eg. D-Link) it will work fine.
    Any ideas to solve the problem are welcome.

  • Ipod 4g wifi keeps disconnecting

    Hi,
    I have just recieved an Ipod 4g as a gift. I am having Wi-fi issues - the Wi-fi keeps disconnecting or it doesn't even bring up the network.
    My Sister will have the ipod in the exact same position and her Ipod will connect to the network with no trouble and stay connected whereas if i am able to find the network it keeps disconnecting after a few minutes. 
    Her is a 3g ipod touch whereas mine is the latest version.
    Anyone know what the problem is. Is the Ipod itself faulty or is this a generic issue with the Ipod 4g's? Anyone know how to fix it?
    Its not the wireless itself as ipod 3g connects fine and so does all other devices.
    Thanks

    Try to reset your iPod (but don't restore it!).  This has happened to e countless times on my 2g. You need to reset it or turn of wifi and turn it back on after a period of time.  Hope I helped!

  • Ever since snow leopard my external drive keeps disconnecting

    i love airport base station extreme- it worked well for years. i get snow leopard (which is also great), but- now my external keeps disconnecting. i have it partitioned for time machine as well. but now it keeps disconnecting after five or six minutes. any help?

    I am experiencing the same issue. I lost a complete hard drive volume due to this situation. About 2 years of data down the tubes and unrecoverable through Drive Mechanic 3 and other sources.
    Please Apple, look into this as I am about ready to downgrade back to Leopard to prevent this. I thought it was my firewire enclosure but it turns out it is doing it with my USB mounted drives as well.
    Both drives have been plugged in to external power by the wall plug and not bus powered so that would not be a cause for them to disconnect in terms of the bus powering them down.
