Hello my Friends,

 

I have been experiencing an issue with EchoLink for two weeks now.  While in
a QSO, I seem to be hearing pauses between  speech every so often (don't
have a time interval yet).    When this pause occurs, I don't hear what
people are saying.  For example, If I call for a repeat on a callsign,
sometimes I have to ask again because the speech gets broken up.  It is as
if something is running that is momentarily pausing speech and creating a
break.  This is made worse by my using the keyboard on the computer
especially in the Chat window of EchoLink.

 

I have been looking through my  processes to see what is running that might
cause this issue and don't quite have a handle on it yet.  Last night, I
recorded a TechNet in which I was frustrated by the number  of pauses. 

 

I have the following config, and nothing has changed that I know of
recently:

 

1.        Broadband Router 

2.       Two wireless Routers / switches 

3.       One router I use for internal stuff and another for external stuff.

4.       The EchoLink computer is connected to one of the routers and has
always worked well.

5.       Just recently, I started experiencing this issue.

Any help would be appreciated.
