There will be a few packets lost, so it will depend on how much buffer is set. (5 sec, 20 sec) The normal buffer is somewhere about 10 - 15 sec of packets, so you might be able to try setting that to zero buffer, monitor (listen to the connection) and see what losses are, then go mobile. I'm sure there will be differences within one Brand, and other differences between Brands.
