Skype to go call quality

Every time I make a call from skype to go to landline in the country which is included in my subscription the quality drops down and the other end can not hear me.

  • Hardware to Maximize Skype Video Call Quality

    Looking to build two Windows desktop computers solely to Skype between them.  Both machines will have Internet at 20 Mbps up and down, and two-to-three selectable (one-at-a-time) webcams per machine.  Want to absolutely maximize video call quality; audio and overall cost are less important.  What specifications for the motherboards/cards/webcams would you suggest?  Suggestions of brand and model are acceptable, but detailed specifications are more important.  Replies very much appreciated.

    I answered a similar question to this in the past, so you may find this thread helpful:
    http://community.skype.com/t5/Hardware/Buying-Computer-for-Skype/m-p/1662779/highlight/true#M4076
    Do understand that unless you have something managing the feed for multiple webcams/video feeds prior to coming into your machine, the load will be put on your processor.  Webcams can be very resource demanding.  If you chose to run multiple versions of Skype that may be as well.  I wouldn't expect 1080p or in some cases HD video in scenarios where you may be taxing even a very fast processor.  Since there can be many variables it's hard to say what will work in your scenario.

  • Skype 7.x missing "Check call quality" icon

    Hi,
    In old version, next to the "add participants" icon, it have a call quality check icon, which i can check the "Connection speed in between me and other side.
    In new Skype 7.x, i cannot find anymore, only found this icon when already startup the call.
    Where i can check call quality before the call startup

    Try to reset all Skype settings.
    Quit Skype or use Windows Task Manager to kill any Skype.exe process. Go to Windows Start and in the Search/Run box type %appdata% and then press Enter or click the OK button. The Windows File Explorer will pop up. There locate a folder named “Skype”. Rename this folder to something different, e.g. Skype_old.
    Next go to Windows Start and in the Search/Run box type %temp%\skype and then press Enter or click the OK button. Delete the DbTemp folder.
    Restart Skype.
    N.B. If needed, you will still be able to re-establish your call and chat history. All data is still saved in the Skype_old folder.

  • Video Call Quality drops / starts out really bad

    Quality of video calling is sub-standard, I live in the UK and use Skype everyday to call a friend in the Philippines and our calls constantly drop out, and at times won't even connect. When connected video quality frequently is pixelated and at times freezes before dropping calls, on average I would say that I get about 10-12 call drop-outs per day and it's not acceptable. Both me and my friend's wi-fi signal are strong, yet everytime a call drops we get a message saying internet signal too weak, it's not the internet as Viber works perfectly well between us and our wi-fi signals are at maximum strength, it's Skype's signal too weak and no matter how many times I've left feedback complaining about this (at least 100 complaints over 10 months), nothing is done to ensure that me and my friend can have a conversation without call drop outs and pixelated and frozen screens. I'm sure that I'm not the only person in the world trying to have a video call with someone on the other side of the world, and also sure that I'm not the only person suffering from this sub-standard service, so it's time you did something to improve the quality of your service and make it possible for me to be able to talk to my friend. You advertise free worldwide Skype-to-Skype video calls, but don't provide the service because of sub-standard signal from Skype, I call that false advertising, so address this issue as it is becoming a real problem for me and my friend.

    I have Skype video calls with my friend nearly 6,000 miles away in South Korea.  I have video conversations all the time.  My last video call a few days ago was 5 hours long with no issues.  You can't compare to different services equally since they operate differently.  If you are getting drop-outs then there is something limiting it and can be hardware or software based.  Skype functions best when multiple connections can be handled by your wired or wireless router simultaneously and UDP is not impeded.  If your equipments gets overloaded or is blocking traffic then the quality of your call or Internet connection stability can deprecate to the point where your call gets dropped.
    To try to narrow the problem down:
    1.  You should try wired instead of wireless.
    2.  If you can bypass the routers used and connect directly, try that as well.
    3.  If the routers being used have any firmware upgrades, be sure to upgrade to the latest.
    4.  Try with uPnP enabled/disabled in your routers or in Skype to see if that helps.
    Usually routers that claim to work well with T0rrents work best with Skype because their firmware handles uPnP and multiple connections without crashing, halting. or failing in some manner.
    My friend in South Korea has moved several times in the past few years.  Many times I've had to remote into his system to repair the conditions of the Internet connection in the location he was staying.  At one point there was a community router being used on the floor he was staying on that was problematic.  I remoted into the unprotected Korean router and updated the firmware that was known to have uPnP issues.  After the firmware update the dropouts we were experiencing once ever 5-20 minutes disappeared and the connection was rock solid and continued to work flawlessly for the 6 months he stayed there.

  • Disable Call Quality Feedback

    Morning all, Does anyone know how to disable the call quality feedback that keeps popping up after making a call. I use skype for business purposes and have the call quality feedback box popping up all the time. Very frustrating. Can anyone assist please??? Thank you in advamce!

    Dear Skype support,
             I have a huge problem with your Skype call quality feedback. I use Skype to talk with my friends and play together full screen games online like CallofDuty7 BlackOps. We have a big community and we have our own discussion which we never leave, we use it to talk while we play the game together (instead of the game team speak). We do this all the time but with your new add "call quality feedback" popup window it throws me and my team mates out in Windows to ask us about the quality of the conversation. This happens everytime someone from the group decides to end call, while the caller and everyone else are still talking on the discussion. This interrupt out game and sometimes the game even crash and Skype ruin the experience with this unwanted and offensive popup. Please fix this problem at your next version of Skype or me and everybody else I know that is a Skype lover but have a problem with your harrasing way to ask people about every conversation - we will leave Skype and go on something else. I have friends, family and co-workers that use this to contact me and they all would change Skype with something else just because I cant stop this harrasment !
    Best regards,
    Yours truly user.

  • Remove Call Quality Popup

    Hello Community: I know this has been hashed before but didn't see anything recently. Do you know if there's anything that can be done about the infamous Call Quality popup. Does the business edition also have this annoying thing? Please, tell me there's some switch to turn it off. Surely at this point Skype has a better way of gather call quality metrics than bugging the users on nearly every call.
    Thanks for any help,
    David

    I actually encourage taking a few seconds to click responses.  These statistics - and our ratings - are important to Skype as they assess call routing.

  • IPhone 5s, call quality, periodic echo

    I upgraded from the iPhone 4 to the 5s 4 months ago.  Ever since I upgraded, I have periodic issues with call quality.  In the middle of a call I will all the sidden start to hear myself talk and the person on the other end cant hear me at all and I cant hear them.  This happens to be in the Atlanta, GA area in the same places on interstate 75.

        jab1820,
    Thank you so much for reaching back out to us. Could you please provide us with your mailing zip code? With your iPhone 5s can you please reset your network settings. You can do this by going into Settings, General, Reset, Reset Network Settings. Then re-try the call quality after that reset has been completed. Please keep us posted.

  • IPhone 6 Call Quality Issues

    iPhone 6 64gb 8.0
    As of yet, I've not been able to make or receive a call without the other person sounding like they're three rooms away. I've turned up the volume on the side and within settings. I've turned the phone off and back on again.
    I backed up this phone from my last iPhone (5) so that I have all my personalization and files, etc. on it now. I also took the SIM card from my old phone and put it in my new phone.
    Everything else seems to work fairly well. It's just the call quality. I can hear what they're saying, They can hear me, but it seems like the volume is as low as it goes. But I know it's not.
    HELP!

    since I received my iPhone 6 Plus on Friday I've noticed that all of my phone calls have very bad audio quality.  i thought it was just when I was talking to someone in a car. But it doesn't matter where they are.
    WHat hat does it sound like:
    its like a crappy digitized vrry tinny sound. It's as if the ither person is talking on a radio.

  • IPhone 5 call quality

    I just bought my iPhone 5. I was disappointed when I received a call and discovered the phone call quality on my end is bad. The other person's voice sounded very tiny and soft although I have already turned up the volume to maximum. Is it that way with all iPhone 5? The receiver could hear me clearly. I tried speaker and the person voice sounded much much clearer.
    Please recommend suggestion to fix this or I have a defected phone?
    Thank you!

    Actually, after examining my phone properly, i think that this problem might have been caused by the plastic cover that I have yet to remove as it looks like it is blocking the earpiece. ><
    My apologies.

  • IPhone Poor Call Quality Without Headphones

    I have an iPhone 4s.  When I am working in my home office, the carrier signal level is good - typically three or four bars out of 5.  However, the call quality is sometimes very poor - I can hear the other caller very clearly but they cannot hear me clearly and often say that it sounds like I am talking through a long tube or that my voice has some kind of metallic quality. However, when I plug my earphones in, it all works just fine. The call quality is generally fine in other locations.
    I did wonder if this is something do to with the apple ambient noice cancelling system and some kind of interaction with it and the case that I am using but I have tested it with and without case and it makes no difference.
    Any suggestions that you might have would be gratefully received.

    I did they have know referred me to Apple!!!

  • Iphone 6 call quality issue....

    Hi, yesterday i saw software update in my iphone 6 and i thought it will solve the call quality issue , but unfortunately it was not for that.
    Dear iphone support , the call quality in iphone 6 is really bad, I was using iphone 4S and that had great voice quality. iphone 6 voice during call is not clear , it has noise .
    When I told my friends about the problem , they told me that I might have bought the refurbish phone. But I bought it from Dubai in 750 USD and I do not think it would be the case.

    Since my iPhone 6 has great Call Quality,
    My tip would be to take it to an Apple shop. All apple Products have world wide warranty.
    If it is really they should be able to fix it.
    Hope this helps,

  • Skype Click to Call for Firefox 7 Installation Nig...

    All info as of Oct.08.
    Hi Guys:
      I would like to start by telling you that I'm newbie to this community as not a Skype fan user and haven't used the application since its June version 5.3. I didn't upgrade my Firefox browser on its due time either as rather use Internet Explorer most of the time. All these three are installed on a Windows XP Home SP3 system. 
      Due to some IE7 settings misconfiguration early this week, I decided to use FF6 again while restoring IE to defaults, which means that plugins and toolbars are disabled or uninstalled in the process. After reinstalation and updating Adobe Flash, Java, etc.. noticed that the Skype Toolbar was definetively lost (uninstalled) to IE.
      FF Add-ons Manager was showing the Skype Plugin (still version 5.3) as disabled, not compatible and with no updates available. I then proceeded to upgrade FF to NB7 recently released 27-09, and then applied latest update 7.0.1 released 29-09, but no change to the Skype Plugin upon clicking on update all add-ons and plugins.
      BTW, release notes for this FF update 7.0.1 states: "Fixed a rare issue where some users could find one or more of their add-ons hidden after a Firefox update"... making me more confused and to look deeper into FF support, but with no success. I also tried FF Add-on Compatibility Reporter to no avail.
      Therefore, it was time to go to Skype and as I usually first learn about latest changes, opened on (blogs.skype.com/garage/windows/) first, to find that there were two releases (an update to V5.5.119 (which I did) and an upgrade to a new build 5.6) on the same date (29-09) of FF's update to fix "hidden add-ons" - what a coincidence to add confusion -.
      In both versions' release notes you can read that changes include: "Updated Skype Click to Call browser plugins and the addition of support for Firefox 7"... but no further explanation. Sorry guys but it was at that moment when I learned about that "Click to Call" name (formerly known as Skype Web Toolbars) which totally different from what I was searching for, making me do some more clicks to search and understand the difference between the installers provided.
      I believe (and suggest) that if in that blogpost 29-09 in respect of the 5.5 update, the poster (Raul Liive) would have included a link to the Click to Call support page, it would have been a lot more easier for Firefox users to update their Skype installation, even though, it is not true that Click to Call "is automatically installed in Mozilla Firefox" as suggested in that support page. It only installs in Internet Explorer. In order to also install it in Firefox and/or Chrome, you must download its installer from that page.
      At least this was my experience which could be taken as a quick reference - Installation Troubleshooting Guide (Provided "AS IS" and subject to Mods' approval):
    - Opened Skype 5.3 and clicked on the Updater to get version 5.5.119 installed.
    - Opened IE7 and verified that new Click to Call 5.6.0.8312 was present in my toolbar.
    - Opened FF7 and verified that old Skype Plugin 5.3 did not changed. Tried to update it again from within the application with no results.
    - Opened Control Panel > Add or remove programs, and verified Skype 5.5.119 correctly shown, but Click to Call was not. There it was still showing "Skype Toolbars 5.3.7280".
    - Closed all applications and proceded to remove Skype Toolbars from Control Panel.
    - Restarted the system and opened CP, IE and FF to verify Skype Toolbars successfully removed.
    - Optionally - ran CCleaner.
    - Downloaded Click to Call Installer and ran it to install it in both, IE and FF, which done   successfully.
    - Opened CP to verify it was then showed correctly as "Skype Click to Call 5.6.0.8312".
    - Opened FF to verify it now shows the plugin correctly as above with no imcompatibility 
    warnings. Made a test call successfully. Did same from IE.
    *Notice: Please note that there is actually only one Click to Call installer (v5.6.0.8312) available at Skype.com, no matter what Skype (supported) version or browser (support for IE, FF and/or Chrome only) you are using. Also notice that when you open your browser for the first time after installing CtoC, a new Skype advertising tag will be opened... Don't worry, it will do it just once. A second advertising window will be opened after your Skype app opens when you make a call from your browser... at least it happened on my first test call and don't know if same for further calls (free account).
      Sorry guys - long story - but hope this to be of any assistance to the community.
    Cheers,
    RickCP

    Would also add that after doing the above troubleshooting you find any problem with your Click to Call feature just installed, or simply need to install or activate the plugin to another browser (one of the 3 supported for Windows) you are also using, you can run your Click to Call Installer again to choose between the following options provided:
    Change:
    Lets you change the way features are installed (and on what browser are to be installed).
    Repair:
    Repairs errors in the most recent installation by fixing missing and corrupt files, shortcuts and registry entries.
    Remove:
    Removes Click to Call from your computer.
    Cheers,
    RickCP

  • My iphone 5 is having poor call quality?  Verizon can't figure out why.  Anyone else having problems?

    My phone has been working without any problems since I bought it in January.  Yesterday I had a Zagg invisible shield applied to my phone and as soon as I got home, the call quality was horrible.  I could hear people on the other end however, they couldn't hear me, the call would be dropped, or they said I sounded like I was in a tunnel.  I removed the zagg cover and it is still not working like it was before.  I called Verizon and did everything from resetting the network settings, to restoring the phone to factory settings and restoring it from the last back up.  Nothing is working.  I have never had these problems up until yesterday.  Verizon would try calling my cell and it would ring on their side but not on mine.  Very strange.  Phone is up to date on its software.
    Anyone else having these issues or know a way it can be fixed??? 
    Thank you!!!!

    Hello the third!
    I placed the <ul> css code you supplied in the main.css file as well. No avail.
    But I did just notice there is a tiny thin yellow line between the logo and nameplate graphics at the top and the menu bar. That yellow line disappears in IE8 compatability mode. The graphics sit right on top of the menu bar, as it appears in Dreamweaver, and the margins and such all line up. In regular IE7, the thin yellow line is always there.
    I don't know if this helps, but it is something I just noticed while tinkering around.

  • Skype click to call is not working in Safari 6 wit...

    My Skype click-to call is not working on Safari 6 with OS X 10.7.4.  The number highlights, but when I click on the number, nothing happens. I do have Skype installed on the computer and it works fine. I am running Skype for the mac 5.8.0.1027 and skype extension for safari 2.1.0.10405. I have two other macs which are running OS X 10.6.8 and Safari 5.1.7 and the click to call (2.1.0.10405) works great on both of those. I can not get it to work on the mac running Lion. Any help? Thanks

    I reverted back to Safari 5.1.7 from Safari 6 and now Click To Call works.
    For anyone wondering how I did this, you can view instructions here:
    http://apple.stackexchange.com/posts/59342/revisions
    I am new to using Macs and was able to follow these simple instructions. Takes a while for Pacifist to install 5.1.7, but it's worth it to have Click To Call working now.
    You will not be able to do this if you have Mountain Lion as Mountain Lion requires Safari 6.
    Lastly, the next time you update your Mac and it asks if you want to upgrade to Safari 6, say NO. At least not until you see that a fix has been posted here in these forums by either Skype or Apple.
    P.S. I posted this reply using OSX 10.7.4 and Safari 5.1.7

  • Why doesn't Skype Click-to-call work on Windows 8.1?

    Why doesn't Skype click-to-call work anymore? I upgraded to Windows 8.1, and now when I click on a highlighted phone number it asks "Which app should I use" or some such microsoft text. But no application is listed. Apparently it does not work from within Firefox (I have the latest version). And I can no longer find a Skype Click to Call application or extension in Firefox. Do I need to use another browser or is there a fix for this?

    Hey ran
    Sorry to hear you are having probloms
    I currently have skype click to call installed with firefox and windows 8.1 up to date. I would advise you to re-install skype and its click to call addon and see where it gets you
    hope this helps
