SPH101 disconnects from Skype after a few minutes

[i2hhj]

I have two Ipevo SO-20, one Belkin F1PP000GN and one Netgear SPH101 WiFi Skype Phones plus 3 PCs with installed Skype, all these running on WiFi connected to ADSL Internet by means of a U.S. Robotics Wireless MAXg ADSL Gateway.
(DHCP, not crypted Wi-Fi, MAC filtering)
There are several Skype accounts being used.
However the Netgear SPH101 disconnects from Skype and Internet after a couple of minutes and must login again.
Does anyone know the cause for this ?
(Netgear SPH101 : hardware vers. 8412, serial number 1JD171J602E1A, software vers. 1.0.46.11, date2006-12-15)
I understood that this software is the latest available.
I am very disappointed of this Netgear SPH101 Skype phone.
Is there a solution to the described issue ?
thanks

Is your SPH 101 working currently? Mine isn't connecting from 08/20/2011. It worked from 2008 till now.

I have contacted Netgear and they told me I have to contact Skype.com, the problem is on their side.

Is your phone *connecting* to Skype service? Mine reports "Sign in was not successful". The same account works well on all Windows / Linux Skype clients in the same network.

hello,
I have not been using my SPH101 for a couple of months using the Ipevo skype phones instead (which have no problems).
Today I checked my SPH101 : no other issues were found than those reported in my previous post :
SPH101 logs in to the wifi network and then to skype, but stops working after a couple of minutes, after having done several skype and skype-out contacts.

I contacted netgear support in Germany and also the support of the ADSL access point which is a U.S. Robotics Wireless MAXg ADSL Gateway.
No solution was found.
So I continue to use my IPEVO SO-20 skype phones which are working fine and
abandoned SPH 101.
