Laurel:

A couple of thoughts on your sound quality on Paltalk, and what you MIGHT do about it.

Of course you might, on Paltalk, go to one of the Help Forums. They have very knowledgeable people manning them. They might be of help.

The other thing is pinging. If you click on START, and then RUN, you'll get what I'll call a comman slot. Type the following:

ping -t 63.240.0.174   And then click OK.   This will give you a window which will run the PING program for the connection with Paltalk. Minimize it. The "ping etc" stays there in the RUN window, so that another time it will just be a matter of running it. This goes some way toward improving Paltalk sound. Whether enough to help your situation, I don't know. I do this every time I'm on Paltalk, for what it's worth.
