You're quite right, I typed before thinking. Upload is the problem
anyways, since it usually (in homes) uses much more limited bandwidth
than downloading does.
No answer to my question though: How do you people handle QoS without
relying on the phones to do that? I'd like a box that can be purchased
and installed easily (Linksys type of product)
Mike,
Unless your ISP specifically supports QOS on your internet connection
there is NO QOS beyond your router. Only within your network will the
QOS be effective. Once the packets go through your router all control is
lost. :)
This also means that you have little control over the priority of the
traffic coming through the router's WAN port. The most you could do with
QOS in this case is to limit outbound traffic from your PC if it would
interfere with a voice call. The same is not true for the return (ie
inbound) packets.
