VoIP issue

A lot of band width is relative, especially with the newer codecs. They typically attempt to do some sort of QOS so latency issues and fragmentation don't make the sound crappy. Funny, humans are really sensitive to network issues where audio is concerned, but video we can let things slide quite a bit.

Where i work, the courts very rarely call about video, but audio issues, is pretty routine.

Well, you better do some kind of QOS or the voice is gonna be crap. There are 3 kinds of voice codecs and they all have been around for years, not aware of any new one's. You can pretty much choose one for best bandwidth usage or best quality which uses the most bandwidth, so yep, it's all relative to how deep your pockets are.

Your right, i was thinking video codec. Most of the sound issues we see are maladjustment of audio gain/volume.

I had choppy audio until I set my router to prioritize voice traffic and disabled SIP ALG. Also made sure my VoIP device had a static IP outside the DHCP range.
