I get that with one person who uses a cellular modem for internet access.

It's the nature of cellular internet connections, there is a drop in signal
or another glitch and connection resets.

With landline internet users it "just works".

Skype works better if you dedicate a port to it. I.e. you open a port
in your router's firewall and forward it to your computer and then 
set it in skype's settings.
