Are the calls poor quality in both directions or on just one of the
"legs" of the call?  Implementing QoS on your router will really only
help network traffic going *out* of your network.  In otherwords, you
can really only affect your upload traffic.

One thing to consider is that you may just have a poor-quality
internet connection.  Have you done a VoIP speed test?  Here's the one
that I use:

This sort of test is ideal for VoIP because unlike most other speed
tests, it measures latency, jitter, etc.
