It has nothing to do with bandwidth.
It has everything to do with your routing gear! 
 

This is completely incorrect. Skype uses a codec that uses far more
bandwidth than traditional telephony provides, which is why it's audio
can have more range than even the best quality phone call. In theory,
there is nothing preventing an all VOIP network from using such a codec,
but as a practical matter, at least part of most phone calls are via
traditional phone gear and/or networks, you don't see it widely
deployed.
