Skype Chat Dropoffs
Question I have sent to Skype support (appears from the various posts that support may be questionable):
I appear to be the only one in the group that is having this problem (group I think numbers in the 100s).
The problem: Chat just dies for minutes/hours and has been getting progressively worse over the last 2 weeks.
When it starts up again I get a burst of backlog chats that I have missed so I know chats have been happening.
Closing out and restarting Skype nor restarting PC does not seem to help.
Here's what I have tried and the problem still persists:
Uninstalled and re-installed Skype; used all default settings.
I have left the chat group and have been re-instated into the group.
I have tried on 4 different PCs on 2 separate ISPs (DSL and cable) with different antivirus s/w; I have even tried on 1 PC directly plugged into tha cable modem bypassing router.
