I've been having problems with basic skype video calls with parties living in Asia.

I can see and hear the feed coming in fine, but the outgoing feed is unusable for the party overseas.

I am told that the voice feed is constantly breaking up and is unintelligible.

I am running a Draytek 2710Vn at home with open Vfx.

I don't know if I can somehow finetune the Qos settings for skype.

Troubleshooting attempts thus far:

• Disconnect all other wireless/Lan devices from router
• Use direct Lan connection
• Reduce outgoing skype video resolution/fps with http://www.evaer.com/blog/change-the-webcam-resolution-for-skype-video-calls/

My connection via ADLS is decent and probably fairly standard although Ping could be better:


Things to try:

• Disable VOIP (if possible) during skype calls?
• Mess around with Qos settings
• Portforwarding etc
• Upgrade to VDSL (too expensive for us)

Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated
