You were saying that your skype quality is rubbish.
Thre are certain factors that can cause your skype calls to sound terrible.
And these are a few
a) ISP Provider...:- You are with Qtel..thats your first problem lol
b) speed of your connection. Skype will upload aswell as download. ITs better to have minimum 512 K connection, although preferred a 1MB connection .
c) If you are using a Router, then Skype has ports you can set it to use. This helps channel information from your router to your PC easily, and without delaying the data stream. If you need to know how to do this , let me know the model of your router and I'll explain.
d) If you are using wireless, this again slows down your possible connection rate, as , the range can affect speed and signal...the strenth of signal you have, again causes a degrading affect in speed.
And lastly the type of security you have set on your wireless e.g WPA,WEP,WPA2, in these cases its best to connect directly to the router using Ethernet for the best possible results.
e) Make sure you have the latest version of SKype as they are always updating their codec, and if you are calling another skype user, make sure they upgrade ot the latest, so they can make use of these upgrades codex. The better the codex, the less amount of data that has to be sent per voice stream, hence better quality.
