I have a T-1 (1.54mb symmetrical) for our data connection. Whenever there is a big download filling the pipe, the inbound voice chops.
When I set the inbound traffic to 1450kb (tested all the way down to 1000kb), I got VERY bad results. Audio was VERY choppy inbound, and ping latency to the internal interface of the firewall would jump from 1ms to 700ms. I was told you can't effectively rate limit the inbound traffic, so I set the inbound bandwidth to 5,000 kb. The outbound is set to 1450kb. It sounds much better, but I still have chops when a big download is initiated. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to improve VOIP quality? I run the same setup in my office on a cable modem (20mb/3mb) and it works GREAT with traffic shaping. I just can't seem to duplicate it on the T-1 speeds. Thanks.
