I have used it recently and call quality was adequate.

Ugly interface on > Linux though. I use this regularly now as the call quality is significantly *better* than a std Telstra phone line as it has the G711U codec. More bandwidth, I think maybe up to 80Kb (bits, I can never remember if it's a big or little b!). A very good STUN server is Counterpath's (the company behind xten) stun.counterpath.net. You will need to play around with SIP port forwarding for best results.
