Anyone else have their Skype calls regularly cut off after 2 minutes. (By telefonica?) The second attempt after a minute or less then the third try to the same number seems to stay connected. Surely this is illegal under European competition laws?

I use it all the time and have never had a problem.

Do you have ADSL through Telefonica(now called Movistar)?

I use Skype daily and have never had a problem.

I have ADSL service thru Movistar

Thanks. Interesting. I'd assumed that it was at that end and maybe it's really something else! Wish I'd asked before!

Another question on this one guys. Which Router are you using?
Anyone got any other ideas why this is happenning?

I use a D-Link router but it also works OK with the Telefonica routers that I have used. I am also on Movistar ADSL.

You could try asking Skype help. Also have you done a speed check?

I have not had any of your problems. I think you might have connection problem, maybee low speed or interrupts.

The speed seems Ok. The interrupts I'd believe except that it's so predictable. First call after 2 mins (ish) second call after 1(ish) and the third attempt stays connected

As Petew said, try asking Skype or using their forum.

This is not really a Spanish issue so you could try the "Labs" forum within British Expats.

It *might* be a "Spanish issue". Since I've never had a problem on the same portable connecting in England. However thanks posters. I'll try talking to Skype.
