I've spent may hours to play with HTB QoS settings on the firewall, but with
absolutely no effect. In fact, this is normal, because the time required to let
a data packet going through the ADSL line will break the voice jitter. The only
right way to handle this issue is to modify the MTU on the
Sometimes this all sounds so complicatedbut it needn't be. I
suppose it can vary with the size of your installation.
I use a m0n0wall router on a Covad DSL line. Using m0n0's traffic
shaping feature I establish inbound and outbound pipes which are
bandwidth restricted to just less than my
That's funny, people having good bandwidth always have a better way to
do it. You should feel lucky, because no one provides 768kbps upstreams
in Switzerland, except if you want to pay 1'000 USD per month for a
leased line.
There is nothing complicated, just mathematics.
Here is the formula:
Jean-Christophe,
Thank you for the explanation. I've never been in a situation demanding
adjustment of MTU. It's not so much that I think I have a better way,
only that my circumstances lend themselves to a simple solution. I did
start out using * with only 256k upload speed. I decided to stay

Hello! Everybody!!,
I want to run VoIP in the same LAN (15 windows clients) which we use for
surfing the Internet. 6-7 softphones in the same client's machines is 'the
target'. My DSL is 128kbps, (I can go to 256kbps if required). So, I am told
to install some QoS's in the LAN to improve the voice
