Q - I cannot hear other people during a PC to PC call.

Q - How do I stop echoes?
A - This may be due to feedback coming back through your speakers. Try using a headset or reducing the volume on your speakers. If both parties on a call are using speakers and in built microphones you will probably experience an echo. Headsets will remove this.
