Try voicepulse in a different area w/ 800 service. With 800 you can jump POPs. If you're stuck with local DID service w/ them, I feel sorry for you.


I've seen several recent complaints, and have experienced my own problems, with voicepulse inbound service. They need to upgrade the POP (wherever you are) to add more bandwidth and/or more lines (depending on if you're getting choppy sound, or if you're getting fast busies, etc).

Personally, I'm cancelling service in a week or two.

Call them and complain, if you think it'll do any good.

Oh I've tried all manner of packet shaping and QoS tagging... it's certainly not an issue with the ISP.

I think Gene Willingham may have the right answer, that VoicePulse cannot handle the load.

Anyone else have any thoughts? Maybe I need to find another IAX service provider to test a different DID in my area.

I've had similar problems but with dial-up modems.

ISP's mantain large queues in the inbound side of your connection to maximize download
speed, but that same hurts latency on your side. You may be saturating the BW and thus
the queue makes it's job.
Use the bw conditioner that is described in the advanced linux routing howto, in the
cookbook, that is named a thing like "the ultimate bw conditioner, fast downloads and
uploads and blablabla". Modify it by putting the ports that the RTP or IAX stream pases,
assigning them with a filter to the interactive class.
Also don't forget to put the correct uplink and downlink values, or you will be putting a
bw restrictor.


The thing that is very weird is that only inbound calls are affected, I would think that
both inbound and outbound calls were affected.

Hi. I'm having a terrible time with call quality coming into my * box.

I'm using VoicePulse over a 1.5/1.5 mbit line. Outbound calls are
crystal clear on both the RX/TX sides of the conversation. Inbound
calls, though, are HORRIBLY garbled on the RX side. I can barely hear
the caller, but they report my quality is fine. Getting loads of
garbled sounds and weird echoes. (Could just be jumbled up voice
packets?)
