<P><FONT SIZE=2>Dear All,</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>I have move from the USA to Sydney, Australia. I have gone from a data center environment at work and cable at home to a 513k/128k ADSL line.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>I'm experiencing two issues;</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>1) There is a latency of .5 - .8 seconds between me and the USA.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>2) I have been in two calls where my voice has been describes as 'Scratchy'?</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>I'm using a SIP Phone from SJ Phone, and a Plantronics USB Headset. In my Asterisk box I'm using the Quad T1 card. </FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Any tips on how I could get around these two issues? I can understand the latency issue, what is contributing to the 'Scratchy' sound? I have not had this issue in the 4 months of running the product.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Warm Regards and Thanks</FONT>
