  Dovid - what exactly are you hoping this sip aware firmware will do
  that dd-wrt doesn't?  I've been using dd-wrt in combination with
  various SIP ITSPs for several years and have had no problems - just
  add the necessary port forwards and a few traffic shaping rules and it
  works just fine.  I do know that they (the dd-wrt people) have a voip

  functionality it has over the standard version, though.

  Erik,
 
  I struggle with the traffic shaping rules, would you be willing to
  provide additional details as to what you have done in past?
 
  Any additional information would be greatly appreciated.
 
  Thanks,
  Dave
 
 So do I. I set SIP to high how ever the calls are still bad. I guess I
 need
 to read up a bit more on the firmware and how to set it up correctly.

Are the calls poor quality in both directions or on just one of the
legs of the call?  Implementing QoS on your router will really only
help network traffic going *out* of your network.  In otherwords, you
can really only affect your upload traffic.

One thing to consider is that you may just have a poor-quality
internet connection.  Have you done a VoIP speed test?  Here's the one
that I use:

http://www.voipreview.org/voipspeedtester.aspx

This sort of test is ideal for VoIP because unlike most other speed
tests, it measures latency, jitter, etc.
