Our VoIP issues stem from packet loss and delays.  Check the quality
of your line(s) too.  I think the problem is our building -- even
verizon analog lines are craptastical here.  The only reliable link we
have is our backup microwave link :-(

The single most important aspect of a working QoS solution is to make
sure your outbound root queue is smaller than the upstream queue. I've
had perfect voip performance when this is done properly, but set it
one kbps too high and when the congestion happens it will be as if you
had no QoS.

I wrote a quick and dirty howto for QoS with voip on Tomato. It's a
different platform but the concepts are the same, in particular the
points on properly sizing your root queue.

Not that I'm aware of. Probably doesn't work. I'm not sure it works on
any version. May not be hard to fix if you poke at the underlying
bits.

Most folks tend to slam microwaves... 
I however love them 

We use them extensively - and they are very easy to maintain and build. 

Check out www.UBNT.com for some decent equipment that is pretty inexpensive. 

Right now I am typing this over a Ubiquity Rocket system - I am about 8 miles 
away from town in the country - house surrounded by trees and I still thinks to 
a short stick in the sky have great service. 


Check out www.Wispa.org for some decent companies local to you that might be 
able to save you over the craptastic connections ;-)
