[Asterisk-biz] Any suggestion for a good ADSL Router that garantees me voIP prioritization and QoS ?

[Muiz Motani]

You might want to look at a Linux firewall using the shorewall netfilter tool 
and kernel traffic shaping/fair queuing. It offers this kind of bandwidth 
reservation management for QoS as well as much more complicated traffic 
shaping policies. Talk to me offline and we can work out a deal to build you 
one of these routers.
