Hello,

I've been having this problem for months now. Whenever someone calls me on Skype or I call someone it is very often that my internet would go out for couple of minutes. Not only my PC but the whole house will be disconnected. It is very annoying. I even bought a new wireless adapter, but it doesn't change the fact that my internet disconnects every time I make a Skype call. I've even changed my settings on Skype and nothing changed. My router/modem model is Cisco DPC3825. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Until you troubleshoot your wireless connection, use a wired connection for Skype. Wireless bandwidth is just far lower than expected since most of the speed information on wireless is bogus marketing.

And unfortunately, your wireless router is not well rated for handling high bandwidth connections. What is your budget to fix this?
