Suggestion: learn to use the facility in Wireshark that can log a SIP/RTP stream and report actual latency and packet delivery stats. That will give you some solid info on at least one aspect of call quality.

We've configured them to prioritize traffic to/from our Asterisk server but I'm not convinced that setting is really working as expected. So we're working with the vendor on that. The effective bandwidth is 6Mb/sec down x 1.4Mb/sec up (so basically 1.4x1.4 on the VPN). For 8 users, where rarely more than 2-3 of them are on the phone at any given time, that should be sufficient I think. They DO have to share the connection with their web browsing and e-mail and such but as best we've been able to tell they aren't saturating their connections - usually not more than 4-5 of the 8 are using their computers at any given time and most of them just do e-mail and local apps that shouldn't touch the Internet connection. Frankly I'm puzzled that they have these issues and the problems rarely seem to happen when I call them. I'll go to their site and make a few calls from one of their phones and it sounds perfect to me. But three days later all I hear is how frustrated they are because these new VOIP phones suck and they can "never" hear anybody and... <sigh>
