What codec dis you use?? I think xlite support speex, that is the
better codec I've tested when connections are under hevy traffic (p2p
applications). G729 is good too, but Speex really worked great in my
tests.

What you need to improve (or decress) is the bandwidth usage.

Check this: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Bandwidth+consumption
but try speex if it is supported by your sip phone. It is free,
variable bitrate and adapts to the available bandwidth, (it is based
on ogg codec).
