Dubai and Skype

[T Dub]

Ive heard that there is a program you can run to be able to use Skype in Dubai. Anybody know anything about it. Thanks.

I couldnt even get on Yahoo last month in Dubai, I guess they do not like social networking, but you can go downstairs from the hotel and get all the ho's you want.

You will need a VPN. There are free ones that work well.

Just use Skype at about 0400 local when it's unlocked.

Why call home when you can get some cheap stinky?

Will this work in China too? Does anyone know how the iPhone app works?

Not sure if this one will work in Dubai, since it only seems to hide your IP. My friend at emirates has to use a VPN. He pays a company in the UK. He connects directly to their server, and then goes to the internet from there. Skype is blocked. Porn sites as well

I have used Skype in my hotel in Dubai plenty of times, worked fine without having to download any special programs....Although I did have trouble running both the voice and video at the same time, so had to nix the video portion and just go with audio.

On that note, http://browser9.com/ can be used to surf banned websites in countries that do that kind of thing.

Because it will cost you more in the long run!

Skype to skype works fine in Dubai. Skype to a mobile or land line number will not work unless you log on to a VPN first.

Why turn on the computer then.

I didn't have much luck with Anchorfree. Tried it several times on various computers and it seemed cumbersome and slow, as well it has advertising unless you buy the full version.

I have used Cyberghost all over the world for the past 5 years. Even the free version is relatively fast and easy to use.

It works well in Dubai and China for sure.

VyperVPN works well in both the ME and China.
