I'm glad it worked for you. In my case it generally worked pretty well for me as an individual, but as soon as we ramped it up for real use by more than 1 or 2 people it pretty much fell apart. X-Lite had the feature set we needed, but voice quality was terrible and was full of clicks. All of the IAX softphones based on the iaxclient library had the same problem with too long a delay in them. Most of the softphones were not useful to use because they were frankly too hard to use for average users. And on it went. > I'm using iLBC codec and the Asterisk is running on a PIII PC > with 256 MB RAM :-) I tried ulaw, gsm, and speex codecs and the results were pretty similar for each. I ended up using ulaw internally and gsm to connect to the external provider (to cut down bandwidth requirements). > Outgoing calls to landline via VoipJet and sipsnip.de, incoming from > FWD (landline number provided by ipkall.com for free). I use FWD for my phone at home to connect to the office. I haven't had the energy to tackle the SIP over NAT issues yet. :) > We are pretty happy with this setup so far.

Our problems were noticable as soon as we had 4 or 5 people on the phones at the same time so as long as you test it carefully under realistic use you should be fine. I never could figure out why my systems would never work well, but it just wasn't worth spending any more time on (cheaper to just buy the hardphones which didn't have the problem).
