Skype

I can't seem to get Skype on my computer now that I am with Plusnet. I would be very grateful if anyone could advise me how to get it. Would I have to make my network unsecure or something? thanks guys.
I keep getting the following message-

Skype Access -hotspot not supported
Use Skype Access to connect to the web and pay per minute with your Skype Credit at over 100,000 WiFi hotspots worldwide.
The current network does not support Skype Access. Please try another available public WiFi network.
Tip: Skype Access doesn't work with private or closed networks.

Re: Skype

Sounds like that's a part of skype designed to work at wireless hot spots, e.g. at starbucks or mcd's or something, you shouldn't need to sign in via that for your own home wifi - every time I've used skype it just asks me for my login and then works, whether on wifi or wired 😕
