Looking at it from the wrong viewpoint. In this situation we are assuming that VOIP traffic is sharing a whole series of transmit queues with no VOIP traffic, specifically general Internet traffic. VOIP and similar is relativly high PPS for the data rate, but is in comparison to general data fl

Ill side with Dan on this one. its absolutely interesting to do a 10,20,40ms packet test out over dirty internet with only a few endpoints involved but then to make that work with the whole ecosystem and out to PSTN means you need to either: 1: perform transrating at the edge on all calls to t

But isn't congestion caused by bytes and not number of packets? So, by that argument, larger packets will fill the queue faster than smaller and thus have a higher propensity to drop? And when it does, it is a bigger chunk of audio so it could actually reduce quality rather than improve it. Ag

One problem with that theory. At 40ms you have more samples per packet making it more difficult for a PLC algorithm to interpolate . Bigger chunks of audio are now missing. Sent from my iPhone > On Jun 9, 2014, at 9:45 PM, "Mark R Lindsey, ECG" > wrote: > > > > >> On Mon, Jun 9, 2014 a
