Recentyl I was at a friends house. He normally has 5 or 6 machines running including his smartphone and tablet.
All have skype activated non stop. His computers are all mac's.
When I connected my kubuntu 13.04 machine to the wifi network and activated skype because I had to do some work with my indian android app builder friends the whole internet connection came to a stuttering halt. He mormally has enough bandwidth, but with me skypeing ti India and his GF skypeing with her parents in Brazil it was all used up.
I have read various articles from various sources. amoung them was this:

and a solution here for macs:

Has anyone come across this? any idea how to limit skype?
