I'm having trouble with Skype

Postby Nippur » Sun Nov 28, 2010 7:50 am

I have not been able to make the sound work though I've been manipulating the audio configuration.

I did setup the firewall, for Skype to work ¿do I have to setup anything special with it?

Thx :wink:

How do you connect to the net? Dial-up? Broadband? Have you set the router/modem to forward ports for skype?

My experience with the sound on skype is almost every other update I loose it. Have never been able to figure it out, just wait for an update to fix it.

Have you tried with the Skype Static package?
