Ping times (latency) and bandwidth are really not related unless you are filling the pipe. Your ping times are too high. My understanding is that anything over 100ms is not good. Your problem probably lies with too many hops or slow or overburdened router along the path.

Is this correct? Is the dsl service 2mbs up and down?

We want to beef up our customer service so they will all be talking at the same time.

If so how many calls do you expect over the network at any one time?

I am new to * here and have a question.... We are installing * currently in the US. We have a small remote office overseas. We would like to enlarge that office to about 20 people using IP phones. My questions are: 1. I pinged the website of the ISP twice from the dsl line I am on which perhaps is not as fast as our T1 line in our office but the following is the average ping times were 216ms, 229 ms, 133 ms, 142 ms, 329 ms, 251 ms ( that enough? :) ) Is anyone running IAX connection with this type of latency? How is the quality of the connection? 2. Is 2 MBPS DSL fast enough to handle the connection for 20 users? Thank you for your information.
