    I have NTL 2MB Wireless Broadband. Video on Skype freezes each time I call somebody. Anybody experiencing the same problem? Is 2MB sufficient to make calls/video on Skype? Thanks.

    128k or possibly less will work.
    It may be a configuration problem on your PC.

    For voice even 28K will work.

    Was talking to Blueface last week - the support guy reckoned that 40k was all the voice service needed...

    Make sure you have the most recent version of Skype (released 2 days ago) and also check for any updates for your webcam drivers.

    I have been using Skype with video over a 1Mbps wireless connection - most of the time it was more like 128kbps - and it worked fine. 2mbps should be more than enough
