[Asterisk-biz] roadrunner, voip and what is going on with this?

[James Taylor]

Sounds fishy to me too.

I just checked a RR connection in Houston and didn't have this problem.

"YOU" have no trouble "seeing" what is going on, you know what is  
happening!
Proving it may be a little more difficult.
The FCC has already fined some ISP's for tinkering with other VOIP  
providers packets.

Why don't you try a connection entirely on their network - between two RR  
customers.

If it works instantly, then you've found both the problem and a solution:
Subscribe to the RR hi-speed service, put another NIC in your box, point  
all of the RR customers to the new IP address.  Keep it all on their  
bandwidth.

Now you have time to document and fight it out.
