[asterisk-users] Echo problem in VoIP-calls

Hello Gareth,

echo also appears when making calls with a SIP phone. These are outgoing 
calls.

Another site now also gives feedback on echo, telling they sometimes 
also have echo on outgoing calls and if they recall right then sometimes 
also on incoming calls (coming from a queue).

This one site that now also gives feedback on echo has a fiber optic 
internet connection, so I don't think the latency plays a role here.

I will now turn off the buffer in sip.conf and see how this goes...

I hope I can resolve this echo-problem.


Jonas.
