What is the cause of choppy calls and is there anything that can be done to fix this?
Choppy calls are usually caused by high latency or packet loss. High latency is when it takes too long for the data to be transmitted over the Internet connection. Packet loss is when information is lost over the Internet connection. Either symptom can be caused by ISP problems, Internet congestion, or heavy bandwidth usage, such as online gaming or file sharing. You can determine if there is any problem by using any number of Internet speed tests.
