I'm experiencing this same issue - "connection lost" at time of call. It was working, and now it's not. I've tried facetiming numerous people that I have never had trouble with before. I have the iPhone 4 on the same home wireless network it's always been on.

The "question mark" is why is facetime failing every time now where it used to work fine?

it's all too technical for me to understand but i think apple has attempted to work around a VHC patent infringement by implementing relay servers for communications in facetime, imessage & maybe other applications too.....according to what i'm reading, their workaround is failing......maybe even bogus.....apart from the connection issues, the relay servers are comprising secure communication in some ways......some tech folks can hopefully chime in with what's going on & what it all means.
