Perhaps other users can share their successful experience by routing skype over different gateways. But as skype can use 80 and 443 ports for data/voice/etc, it might be difficult to handle it.

Another approach for this setup,
- forward all traffic over second (slower gateway), including skype and other services;
- forward important traffic over first (faster gateway).

In my case, I want to use Faster wan (wan2) for Skype, to give skype related connectivity, im, voice/;video more quality
