skype echo sound test plays back too fast

While playing the Telephone game might be fun in a social setting, no one’s really laughing while they’re trying to spontaneously cultivate their lip-reading talent in the middle of an important conversation. In Skype calls, sooner or later my voice starts cutting in and out mid sentence my voice will go silent for several seconds, with no quality loss outside of the cut out. Sometimes instead my voice won't cut out, but will skip or stutter. I can understand everyone else perfectly. In a one-on-one call, Skype will sometimes tell me my connection is slow and then back to fast. The cutting out isn't repeatable enough to test. Echo soundtest only sometimes reproduces the problem. The problem can happen once when I join a Skype call, or five hours later. It can happen when I'm doing nothing with my network other than Skype, or when I'm playing a multiplier game with people. No other VOIP program, or anything else has any internet issues.

My internet speeds should be no issue, download is 117Mbps and upload is 34Mbps, according to Speedtest. I have used multiple versions of Skype, the problem continues regardless of version, currently I am on Skype 6.9. I have disabled and uninstalled them multiple times, this does nothing. I have tested my current mic a thousand times and playback is flawless. I have switched to an older mic, no difference.ĭoesn't seem to be my computer, I have used my laptop to test if the problem happens, still does even on a wireless connection. I even did a fresh install on my computer earlier. I'm still game to try out anything on my computer since I'm so desperate. Originally I thought it was my router, yet plugging the ethernet cord directly into the modem doesn't stop the problem.
