[asterisk-users] Re: IAX2 goes "one way audio" when lag gets bad

[Pavel Jezek]

if anyone has one-way audio issues with iax over jittery connection, 
please look at bug report, what I created yesterday and report your 
experiences,
I think this is one of the most serious bug, that must be identified and 
resolved before 1.4 will be released, thanks
