I tried this after having used the D-Link DPH-50U devices, seeing that this looked like the same thing only cheaper. So needing a 3rd one I thought I'd try it out and see if I could save money.
Setup of the Eforcity is very easy. It uses Skypemate software to link with Skype and their isnt really anything to do exept put the cd in and install it. The cd came with the latest drivers on it.
However, the audio quality with this device is subpar. Their is a constant static in the backround, it is a soft persistant noise that is annoying. You can still hear voices fine, they are not garbled, but that backround static noise gets bothersome. Compared to the D-Link DPH-50U which is crystal clear I will pay the extra $20 for the D-Link one.
I swaped this Eforcity device out with the D-Link one so I know it wasnt a computer or network issue.
I would recommend spending the extra $20 for the D-Link version or some other one without the static. Make sure if you are behind a firewall or NAT router of any kind that you port forward your router for skype,or else skype will use your web browsers default port 80 or 443, though skype is designed to work without port forwarding (NAT transversal)it will sound terrible no matter what device you use.
