Tim Panton ha scritto: I don't suppose you have an ethereal packet capture from a bad call ??? Or a description of the 'badness'? I have myself problems with iax2 sometimes, it drops a lot of packets even if there's no apparent reason to. For example two asterisk connected via iax2 on a local lan, one takes voip from the outside and the other terminates on a digium, suddendly iax2 show netstats show a dropped % of 15-20 for every call, even if the load is small (30 alaw calls on a 3.0 Ghz), then all come back to normal. During this period the load is abnormally high (3/3.5, see previous posts), but the idle cpu is around 85/90%. ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
RE: [Asterisk-Users] Problem with chan_iax.c implimentationcausesbadaudio?
All switches and routers give highest priority to traffic on IAX2 port 4569. We use DSCB values over the IP-VPN to prioritize it as well. This did not change with the upgrade, as we can still see proper packet coding. The softphone is provided by our vendor Aheeva. It is the same IAX2 softphone they use in their own call centers. Funny thing is that they say that moving to Asterisk 1.2.4 tremendously IMPROVED their call quality with IAX2. Headsets are Plantronics H251N tops with DA60 USB adapters. All Desktops are at least 2.0 GHz P4 with 512MB RAM -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Andrew Kohlsmith Sent: Tuesday, March 21, 2006 11:08 AM To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] Problem with chan_iax.c implimentationcausesbadaudio?

Agents are VLANed If there were significant changes to chan_iax2 and these were not upgraded to match, this could explain the trouble. Point is that it worked fine for 6-9 months before the Asterisk 1.2.4 upgrade. Oh, I understand the point. I'm not defending a protocol change causing such breakage, I am just trying to identify why the breakage occurred when Asterisk was upgraded. Out of curiosity, which softphones do you use? What kind of interface to the user, just a cheap headset plugged into the speaker/mic on a soundcard (which soundcard? I've had trouble with some) or something fancier such as a Plantronics USB headset or bluetooth one?
