They use the G.168-2002 algorithm; I, personally, had never heard of it

You might want to do some research before making statements like that... G.168 is a set of recommendations of characteristics that an echo canceler implementation should provide, and a set of tests designed to determine whether an implementation is compliant with the recommendations. The current recommendations were released in 2004.

G.168 is _not_ an algorithm, so your friend must have a slight misunderstanding of the situation. There are many (dozens, maybe hundreds) of implementations out there claiming to be G.168 compliant, but most of them have not been tested by a third party to verify those claims.

More than that, in their fine print some only claim to pass maybe two or three of the tests. There is nothing that defines what you must achieve before you can claim G.168-2002 compliance.
