unless something has changed - i never did find a way to do this 100%. I had a similar setup for a call center - folks doing collections of all things... anyhow - I had them spring for a 2nd cable modem and setup 2 pfsense systems
Really simple - one subnet went out one network- the other - the other While I am sure there is a way - this honestly was the best way to ensure voice quality all the time. Simply put - I blocked all but the voice traffic period from the one network. Worked like a charm This was supposed to be a temp setup - as their office had some asbestos or something - but the quality was good enough they ended up keeping it when they chose to stay in the new location. Comcast cable modem when they went to Docsys 3 beefed up quite a bit - 50mb down and 20mb up... They still have both in place - and the simple $300/mo fees are not worth them fighting about they can make that in 1 phone call :-) > I'm a long time fan of PfSense but several concepts elude me ... so I > was hopping somebody had a VoIP QoS for PfSense how-to they could > point me at. > > I'm setting up a short term office with computers and VoIP phones.
