Well, I do use SIP trunks for the long distance calls but the local
calls are routed through an AudioCodes MP-118 Gateway.

I believe there is adequate traffic shaping configured on the Cisco
router.  The main problem is that this issue (callers hearing glitches
or dropped syllables from recipients but recipients hearing callers just
fine) occurs even between phones on the same internal LAN.  So, the
router and the AudioCodes Gateway are not always a part of the scenario
when users experience this problem.

I recently read another thread about a user hearing a stutter during
voicemail IVR playback.  One of my users has experienced that same issue
and you indicated that it might be a problem with the Polycom firmware.
  I'm currently running the version 3.2.4 but I have deactivated that
and reactivated 3.1.3RevC so hopefully that will help to resolve the
issue.  I have QoS configured on all of the switches and a user has told
me that the call quality on Skype is better than the quality on the
Polycom phones so I'm hoping/thinking that it may be the firmware.

I know there are many tests I can run but what are some of the best
tools/tests to run in order to track down the cause of an issue like
this?  Should I look into setting up an RTCP-XR collector for Polycom
Productivity Suite?  We don't have the Polycom Productivity Suite but
should we get it?  Will one suite license cover all of the 64 phones we
have?

Thanks again for your help.
