I would also offer feedback that we too have random calls with echo on our end, that can't be traced to a reproducible event. It's very odd and can be frustrating, as it's a big distraction for those that don't know better. Like a bad cell phone connection when you hear yourself talk. For us,

I do feel the echo cancellation does need some work. Currently, other than listening to users, there is no way to benchmark or trouble shoot echo problems. Sure there are, it's just that 99% of the asterisk implementors don't have the test equipment to do it, and a good share probably
