Latency doesn't vary much with the codec. Different codecs package different amounts of audio per packet, but that is usually a small part of the overall latency with VoIP. If G.711 is used with a reasonable quality PLC algorithm, like the new one in *, it beats G.729 hands down in its packet l

Asterisk needs more than to just allow T.38 as a codec type. T.38 only recently gained an RTP option, and very few things support it so far. You need to have a UDPTL transport for most boxes supporting T.38. I have a working UDPTL for *, but it needs more polishing before release. Regards, Stev
