That app should only be necessary if you use WEP - which is a horribly outdated and insecure protocol, if you have any say in the matter CHANGE IT!! Use WPA or WPA2... Much more secure (although nothing is bullet-proof, it's just about blocking the script kiddies which unless you're gov't 99.9% will be...)

Well, don't do that. Don't mix & match kernels w/modules, why did you think that would work? I hope someone didn't tell you to do that, because it's certainly wrong.

Yes i do run wpa2 on my home wifi, i installed it just in case i need to access WEP. Nobody told me anything about mix and matching, it was just a my idea to try to trouble shoot the problem with skype. I guess it was just sheer dumb luck or the fact that these kernels and modules aren't that different from the previous ones that they happen to work fine.
Thanks for the advise though! I do wish if you could, could you try out skype and see if you can duplicate the crashing of the phone?

I guess I could, I have no clue how to use it tho. Don't you need some account and maybe someone to call? I have neither .

You just need to sign up for an account. You don't need anyone to call because there's a bob on it called "skype call testing service" or something like that, that you could call and try to end the call. that was what I was troubling shooting when I was mix and matching different kernels and modules.

Sigh...

I do have an old Skype account evidently, but I have 0 credits. So it didn't let me make any phone calls... and I couldn't figure out how to make a test call. The in-app 'Help' link redirected me to a browser. However, the application itself worked flawlessly. Without being able to test if a call would work or not, I'm not sure what else I can do for you.

Thank for your try anyway. I was referring to just skype to skype calls not skype to phone calls. I was wondering if you could see the bot from skype to help users ID if their mics and speakers work fine with skype. The bot should be in your contact's list called skype call testing.

Huh. I had to add "echo123" to my contact list (found this on their help page) and it worked flawlessly. The audio was a little choppy incoming, but when it played back my voice it sounded amazingly clear. The 'far end' sounded pretty bad tho. This was over 3g, not wifi.
