Skype signs me in and out randomly several times throughout the day -but only at home.... office and other networks never happens. Could this be a modem/router issue?

No the Skype service at EY just sucks

Your internet is probably dropping periodically

Yes I have the same issue. For some reason only my computer gets kicked off my home router periodically when I work from home while nobody else's has issues in the house

SC1 - how exactly do I do this? Moved in with a bunch of roommates who previously set up the WiFi..

Still signing out

Is anything else crashing or logging off

SC1 - Nope, stable VPN to company network, other apps are fine. WiFi never disconnects, just Skype

Do you have to use vpn into network to use skype....most skype installs now use ssl so you can avoid vpns

Nope I dont,Skype works just fine with a WiFi connection

Got me....uninstall it and reinstall. Maybe patch it

Did you check the VPN logs to see if the VPN is dropping? It may appear stable but take like inflight wifi if that VPN loses connection for a second..."Reconnecting to..."

I was recently offered a Zoom interview. The school had 10 interview slots for me to choose from. Three were one day this week and the rest are next week. I chose the first time slot available. Should I have waited until one of the last slots so I was fresher on their mind when choosing a candidate? I am just sitting here stressing out until I here something. Also, do interviewers still appreciate a hand written thank you for the interview?

Hi! Can someone recommend a source for learning how do simple, fun music lessons on Zoom? I teach first grade and use music for my transitions.

So my fiancé and I are having a microwedding in Rocky Mountain National Park next year, and we’re working with an elopement planner.

I’m just really happy that I found someone who is willing to take a vow to spend his life with me and I’m so excited for that day :)
