I understand skype is bad on bandwidth. But it doesn't make any sense to me how I can have 900 kpbs average download and still can't hear voices coming in. Or how I can't stream a one meg file thru windows media or real player.

I am in Afghanistan and the satellite services on the base performs better with skype and streaming files than the more expensive satellite services provided by the retailers. But I can surf the web faster with the commercial providers. A trade off would be nice.
