Yes, done it, several times. Although that was done over a leased satelite link. Any other ip-traffic had a lower priority... Had a number of hardphones (snom's & utstar's) at one end, and asterisk via ipsec-tunnels at the other end. In between a C-band satelite and a small tracking antenna on moving vehicles (cars and ships) Latency is noticable, but acceptable. Choise of codecs determine the number of available channel, given an amount of bandwith, obviously _______________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
