[Asterisk-Users] Linksys WRT54GP2-NA settings forperformanceandlowbandwidth?

Wed Jun 29 08:59:59 MST 2005

I have my systems running on ulaw, alaw or GSM. No other codecs. Myself I
even prefer the ulaw because of the quality.

I will look tomorrow a little bit further in the Linksys as I have 2 of them
here to test and so far I am very happy with them. 
I will play a bit around with the settings and let you know tomorrow or I
founded some things to improve.

I have indeed already done so - I use G729 quite a bit since I travel alot 
in adverse conditions.  Interesting thing is, I can get less choppy audio 
sometimes from my Vonage device using (what I suspect to be) Ulaw, while 
either ulaw or G729 will still give choppy response at that moment from my 
Linksys....
