Skype constantly drops calls

I have the ipad air, its half a year old and for some reason it constantly disconnects and reconnects from the internet every 20 minutes
When i'm in a skype video call, it drops every 5 minutes
Others have said turning off bluetooth will make it work, but i've already turned it off.
Can anyone help me?

Get in line!, at your local Apple store!
"WARNING" Please read this before your decide to buy a 4S iPhone from Apple "WARNING"
I purchased a 3GS phone, worked great, excellent reception, NO CALL drop outs excellent phone.
The phone was 17 months old, loaded a new software update and the problems started!
Phone would get to between 50% and 80% battery life remaining and the phone would just shut down. I had to plug it back into a charger for about 20min before it would boot back up.
Tried for 3 months to get it right, software updates etc, etc, etc.
GAVE UP!
Bought a new 4S, took it out of my Telstra Country Business store, after being guaranteed that it had the Telstra counrty tick of approval and it droped out, cancelled calls, calls failed, bad reception, my clients only hearing every second or third word that I said.
Returned to the Telstra store and they said they could send it away for me to be repaired !!!!!! Phone was 10 minutes old!
So the story goes, hours on the phone resetting the software turning stuff on and off.
Then off to the Apple store 1 hour 10 mins drive away, brand new phone supplied to me, excellent service!
The new phone is as bad as the last one!
PLEASE ! Dont buy an Apple iPhone for your business calls, they don't work! and it will cost you many hours of your time and possibly your customers!
I was a possinate Apple customer!

We used to have great service, now it sucks! Constantly dropping calls, dead areas that have never been dead. Getting fed up and getting no help from Verizon.

This is really getting old, no help from Verizon. Service was great 2 years ago now it sucks, Constantly dropping calls, dead areas where there used to be fine. What is verison doing to help this???

I have an iphone 5s, my husband has a casio, my sister in law has a Samsung, my friends have various phones we are all experiencing the same thing – dropped calls, no service and it is outside as well as inside the house or the car. At our residence and along the drive to work or to the store. I don’t text much or use my data much so I am mostly concerned with the telephone service.

Constantly dropping calls no matter the phone

All Verizon phones constantly drop calls in my house. Signal constantly bounces from 2-4 bars when the phones aren't moving. The only place I can make calls without dropping signal is if I step out in my back yard. How do I put in a ticket or have someone check this out. The problem has been here since I moved in 2 years ago, however it's progressively gotten worse. Phones are HTC Winphone 8x and Samsung Brightside, but family's Droid X2, Iphone 4, Iphone 5, LG showtime, and a couple other basic phones all have same issue.

Hi mtpica112471!
I apologize for the inconvenience because I realize the importance of operable service! Let's look into this. Current zip code? There can challenges present with indoor coverage.
Thanks,

Moto Driod constantly dropping calls

I really hope someone can help me, My Motorola Driod is constantly dropping my calls. I can't even talk to someone for more than 2 minutes without the call being dropped. In addition to that problem, while I'm talking to someone, the phone will randomly mute the phone to where I can hear the other person but they cannot hear me. It basically happens 99.5% of the time, please help!

I haven't expereienced dropped calls until I got the moto droid, but I will try your tip. thank you I hope it works
Hi! I am sorry you are having issues with drop calls. I can certainly look into this for you. TheGreatOne is certainly correct, I would first suggest dialing *228 option 2 to update your phone. If that does not help, I may need to check your area so I can see if we are having any issues with your area.
Please let me know if updating your phone works.
If not, can you please send me your zip code so I can check your area?
Thanks!

IOS 4.3 constantly dropping calls

I updated to iOS 4.3 about 2 hours ago. Before updating, I had maybe 1 call drop every few weeks. Since updating.. I'm checking my call log to be accurate.. What should have been one 24 minute call was broken up into 16 calls because it kept dropping. Then another for a total of 12 minutes during which there were 10 drops. I have nothing out of the ordinary to explain it other than the update.

I just started having problems with dropped calls today on my 3GS, even though i updated a few days after the update came out. I tried calling someone today and the call dropped 8 times. My signal was fine. The call time is only about 15 seconds before the call drops again. I tried calling them back and it dropped 3 more times. I called someone else to make sure it was my phone, and it dropped 3 more times with that person. I am extremely angry as my phone is now useless as a phone. If this is 4.3, they need to fix it now!

Iphone 4 constantly dropping calls or "call failed"

I've been having nothing but trouble the past couple weeks with dropping calls or getting the "failed call" showing up when trying to make a call. It happens more times than not and i spoke with Apple today and was told that after you try all the resets and restore options it should be fine. If that doesn't work, its more than likely a SIM card issue and needs to be cleaned or replaced. I did all the restore and backup and all the other garbage they advised me to do, and still did not work. Took the SIM card out and im not sure if its supposed to sparkle in the light, but its pretty **** clean. Re-inserted it, and still dropping calls or "call failed". Next option is getting a new SIM card tomorrow and i'll update what i find out.
Previously, in July, some moron from Canada was beaking how its a service issue and he's on Rogers network, blah blah blah and he's never dropped a call and its superior to AT-T and mentioned something about how all the ppl would have no trouble if they were on the Rogers network.
Well i'm from Canada and work with 2 other ppl, surprise, from Canada who are having the same problem with the iphone 4........its not a network thing whatsoever, because ppl on Telus and Rogers are having the same problem. Im assuming he was from Toronto where the center of the universe is and he was basically just being an idiot, so for that moron, i apologize to ALL who are having issues with the iphone 4 and hopefully Apple gets their act together and solves this issue!!

Hey everyone, I think I finally got the solution for this. It appears to be a NETWORK ISSUE with the phone provider. I am a Telus subscriber and after speaking to a cool tech guy from Calgary named "Corey", he performed the following task:
He told me he had to reset 4 settings on the network for my account. A few of which were under something called "STF viewer" "PLMN" and "PRL"...
Aftewards, I had to go to my iphone: General > Reset > Reset network settings
I am now able to complete phone calls (and apparently my reception sounds better to my call recipients/callers too). The problems is not related to a "faulty device" or "something" you did... If the problem happens again, I'll call my provider and have them investigate the ticket further as it could be a bigger network issue (with GSM) but chances are it just requires a simply settings reset on the backend of your provider's data support team.
After doing the reset, all I had to do was reconfigure my wifi password. No other settings were lost. (and more importantly, I didn't have to re-restore my iphone, didn't have to go to Apple and sound like one of those "iPhone 4 vs HTC cartoon characters" and didn't have to yell like a child to anyone. Just be cool when you call your provider's tech people, these guys are good hard working people and will help you and will have a better chance at success if they empathize with you and don't feel annoyed by you (I'm in IT, I know how it is).
I was also told that if I had to call back and if they had to reinvestigate, the next steps would probably involve having my SIM card changed but based on the previous tech's experience, it would be highly unlikely. I will update you further should I encounter any further issues. Just don't be hating on the iPhone 4 as most people do coz it is a sweet device if you can understand the tech specs behind the underlying issues.
Hope this helps you guys and anyone else who got frustrated by this problem!

Droid 4 Constantly dropping calls

Has anyone else (who's had their Droid 4 for a year or more) had any problems with an increase in number of dropped calls as the phone is getting older? It's now happening to me daily, and it seems that they are now occurring more and more often. I have the extended warranty and insurance on my phone and am trying to decide if it's worth the hassle of filing a claim on one or the other. I very rarely get a "call lost" message; in fact, I'm more likely to be talking along and wonder why the person isn't responding, then look down & the call is just not there any longer. I've also started getting a very bad "reverb" style sound at times.

Hello sarabugstar,
A dropped call is not something that we are used to reading about from our customers. Rest assured that we are on the job to get this resolved as soon as possible. Let's start with what zip code are you in? Are you having issues with your data services? Also, can I assume that there isn't any liquid or physical damage on the device? As you share the details of your concern then we can customize a solution for you. I'm looking forward to your reply.
Thank you...

Error Report - Skype is dropping calls

I've been having this problem since Microsoft took over the company. I use the iPhone version of Skype and have been paying for an unlimited membership for over a year now.
I will call someone, using my paid Skype- landline service, the phone will ring until they answer. Then as soon as they answer the phone and say "Hello", Skype drops the call. The ways I've gotten Skype to successfully connect to a number and not drop the call is to call another person and hope it doesn't discconect then call the first person back. I've also tried things like turning wifi on and off, or rebooting the phone.
Anyway, I'm extremely pissed off, and having to post this on some public forum is an insult, after paying you money, I want a phone # to complain to, or an email address at least.
This whole forum crap is a typical microsoft way to try to cut costs and dodge the bullet of having to provide actual customer service for their products.
I couldn't just easily find a way to file a text based error report. I had to fumble around your site for 15 minutes then finally try google. Then I had to create some forum account and it was a mess.. I hate your site for that reason. If you want to piss people off and make them leave your service, you're making me want to.
People don't want to have to learn about how to use your stupid forum site before they can tell you about a broken program. this is why your program won't improve as quickly as it could. Overall your strategy fails and Microsoft loses again.. You keep buying companies and not improving them as much as the competition.

Dear Mr. Moderators,
Could we have some help. One of your moderator told me to submit a log file. But I couldnt find the log file at the location as said. Last night i just found it but in totally different loaction and here it is uploaded. Could you please tell us the possible reason of such a great problem. You should be aware that we are loosing money. If you really care for the services you should refund the amount for which i have not been able to make the calls. Please look into the matter seriously.
Thanks and Regards

Skype Randomly Dropping Calls and Terrible Microph...

Hello guys. Recently, Skype has really been acting up for me. It's probably dropped a call 30 times in the last two days, and my microphone (Blue Snowball) quality is extremely muffled and bad quality. This stuff sounds normal if you have a bad connection, but the fact is, I don't. My connection isn't good by any means, but 15 Mb/s (I did a speed test while my calls were dropping) shouldn't lead to constant call drops, and it never has until recently. I've tried multiple solutions but had absolutely no success. Please help, thanks.
P.S.- Even while the calls are dropping, there is never any warning. My connection status is still white instead of yellow or red (most of the time).

I am having the exact same problem. And it happens regardless of whether I'm using wifi or data, laptop or phone.

Help! my new HTC drops calls constantly...

I just got this phone a few weeks ago and it is constantly dropping calls at my home. My previous old basic phone never dropped calls here. I have updated the phone several times and it hasn't helped. My husband got a G'ozone and it is doing the same thing. I am thinking we should have gotten iphones instead of droids. Anyone else have this problem? Any suggestions? Also, I am wondering if there is a time frame where you can return a new phone and get something else?

Hi kiz,
I also have the Galaxy S3 and I have not experienced any issues with calls. I want you to have the same experience! As indicated by Ann154 (thank you!), the coverage in your area may have something to do with the quality of your calls. Please provide us with your ZIP code and we'll check the type of coverage in your area. We can also replace the SIM card to ensure that this issue is not SIM card related. If you have not requested a SIM card replacement yet, please follow me and send me a DM with your account number and I will follow up with you to order a SIM card replacement.

Skype drops calls

So on my kindle fire my skype keeps dropping calls or kicks me out of groups call and im not sure why it works fine on my phone and on my computer but not on there, and my tablet is 2 years old. so help please?

Just to avoid any confusion here: Skype has the 7.x version number on Skype for Windows desktop and Mac, but these are completely different platforms with different software. So there's nothing like a "quick port of the software to TV".
The TV manufacturer decide which Skype software they support and maintain on their TV models. Skype doesn't have any influence on updating the Skype app on older TVs. So please reach out to Samsung if you want this to change.
