Modern technologies created for the communication of Internet users are full of great variety. The most popular program for communication between people of different continents at the moment is Skype.
Not always the use of this program can be accompanied by extremely positive impressions. Sometimes Skype suddenly starts to work slowly. There may be several reasons for this.
The first reason Skype is slowing down may be due to poor internet connection. This malfunction can be noticeable if you look at the number of connection indicator antennas and their color. If the color is red and there are no antennas, then there is no connection. If you see yellow and two or three stripes, then the connection is bad enough to take full advantage of Skype's capabilities (video chat and voice calls may not be available). If you see all the bars in green, look for another possible reason for the poor performance of the program. In any case, it is worth checking the connection to the Internet and contacting the provider for help in establishing communication channels.
Also, in Skype, the image that your computer transmits to another user, or vice versa, can "slow down". This may be due to the insufficiently good video card of one of the users of the program. In this case, it is worth replacing it.
Perhaps the problem lies with the video camera, which is not suitable for communication according to its technical characteristics. To check this, connect a known working camera to your computer and make a test call. If the image is transmitted without interruption, then you should replace the device. For those who have not yet purchased a video camera, it is advisable to consult with the seller about the possibility of integrating it with the Skype program.
Also, recently, there may be a version conflict in Skype. The fact is that when the program is automatically updated, the old version may not be deleted. Try uninstalling Skype completely and reinstalling it.
