skype/dropped calls

Anybody else experiencing lost or dropped calls more than usual today?

Can you hear me now?

It may be due to problem with your internet connection.

We must remember that there are solar flares buffeting the ionosphere at this time. These cause havoc with satellites, communications, radio and TV transmissions, etc.

Just be glad there isn't a CME or Coronal Mass Ejection! Those can literally cook thing very quickly. In 1859 there was a huge CME that hit the United States and it caused the telegraph wires and the wooden poles supporting them to catch on fire.
