the definition of "latency all over the place" is jitter. Its not a latency problem its a jitter problem. Jitter is the varying inter-packet arrival time, if it is constant even if it is 1 week later, there is no jitter. high latency can ruin conversation quality, but not call quality. conversation quality is harmed because of the psychological trigger of when the other person is finished speaking and it is your turn. Most people believe this to be 250-300ms of silence, when you have high latency people will double on each other. This is not as big of a deal with fax machines which handle this very well. It is jitter and loss that kills faxes not latency. -- Trixter http://www.0xdecafbad.com Bret McDanel pgp key: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x8AE5C721 -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-biz mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-biz
