Has anyone else been having problems with Skype in European hotels?
I'm connected using the cable in the room but everytime I start Skype I get kicked off the network after a few seconds.
I spoke to the front desk who thought the server might be blocking Skype in the rooms, in the hope people would use the vastly expensive room phones (yeah right).
I did manage to use it in the Business centre through the wireless connection, which uses a different server from the rooms though it has the range of an asthmatic hamster and won't reach the rooms
Any thoughts?
