Have you done any packet captures? If it is a small site, you might be able to look at the TOS bit and prioritize accordingly. If you see a DSCP (TOS) of 46, I assume it is VoIP and tag it for queues. In Mikrotik, there is a "connection type" option, and SIP is one of the options. I also tag that one and set it to VoIP for the QoS rules.
It gets most traffic, but don't know about Skype.

Does anyone have experience using RouterOS (on RouterBoard or x86) for doing Skype QoS? I've been trying many different Linux based servers (ZeroShell, pfsense, Endian, ClarkConnect specifically for achieving good QoS with Skype - more specifically to keep the P2P stuff from killing Skype - and so far nothing is performing as well as little router with Tomato firmware and it's QoS. The problem is having the layer 7 sniffer properly detect and categorize Skype and uTorrent. I'm getting ready to try RouterOS (x86) and Wolverine. Does anyone have any success stories? Thanks!
