Whenever my mom is talking on skype and I'm in-game my ping hits 900 and sometimes over 1000+.

Any way to fix that?

Buy her a cell phone, get your own internet, block skype, kill her, etc.

but really.. its just too much bandwith for your router.. or internet.. post a speedtest here also.. and how the computer are connected to the internet

another possibility is maybe she isnt talking to her parents, but on the webcam for "adult" reasons :thumb: :huh:

You could be evil, log on to your router and block her from connecting to the router. And when she asks whats wrong with the internet just say you dont know. :]

It takes alot to get a live chat that far. And even worse if you have dial-up, which im assuming you dont. Shipping her to Poland isnt an option, correct?

Use your routers QOS settings to prioritize game traffic over skype traffic. She's using all your upload bandwidth is the problem.

Its a feature of your router quality of service. It allows you give some traffic priority over other types of traffic. In this instance you would give online games priority over VoIP traffic. Just google your router and you should be able to find a guide telling you how to setup it properly, because it really varies depending on your router what features for QoS you have.

Basically to set up QoS you're going to have to log onto your router's control panel, usually you can access it by typing "192.168.1.1 into the address bar of your browser and logging in. If you don't know the password most routers have the default passwords printed on the back of them. Once in the control panel. Once in the control panel you go to the QoS section and set it up. Some routers have all kinds application presets so you just have to pick your game from the list and give it priority, while with others you'll have to manually configure it. Best of luck!
