She is just a tenant using the landlady's router and she knows nothing about it. She shows a break on her computer. The wireless connection goes grey temporarily and when she displays the connection, the message changes. It goes from &quot;Status: Connected&quot; to &quot;Status: Acquiring network address&quot;.

Both my daughter and I installed Skye on our notebooks. We are able to call one another but the call drops within 1 minute. I think the problem is at her end as I keep seeing the Skpe window pop up saying that she&quot;has just signed in&quot;. She does not get that message about me. Bother computers are connected to the internet wirelessly via broadband modems and routers. We think that her computer is constantly breaking her internet connection momentarily which terminates the call. She changed the XP polling to off but that made no difference.

Voice over IP (VoIP) is a methodology and group of technologies for the delivery of voice communications and multimedia sessions over Internet Protocol (IP) networks, such as the Internet. Other terms commonly associated with VoIP are IP telephony, Internet telephony, broadband telephony, and broadband phone service. The term specifically refers to the provisioning of communications services (voice, fax, SMS, voice-messaging) over the public Internet, rather than via the public switched telephone network (PSTN).  Examples of the VoIP protocols are H.323, Media Gateway Control Protocol (MGCP), Session Initiation Protocol (SIP), H.248 (also known as Media Gateway Control (Megaco)), Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP), Real-time Transport Control Protocol (RTCP), Secure Real-time Transport Protocol (SRTP), Session Description Protocol (SDP), and Inter-Asterisk eXchange (IAX).
