[Asterisk-Users] X-Lite Softphone

[Richard J. Sears]

Hey Everyone,

I downloaded and installed the X-Lite softphone the other day (the lite
version) and cannot seem to get it to work well.

Don't get me wrong, it registers with my asterisk server and everything
seems to work well, except the call quality really is horrible.

I thought it may be the place I was trying it at (DSL) so I took it to
the office and tried it right next to the asterisk box and had the same
luck.

My laptop is the Dell XPS, so power, ram, etc are not problems, and
loading it onto my desktop system revealed the same results.

There was also no difference between a NAT implementation and a regular
(live IP) implementation of the software.

I am getting stuttering speech, cutouts, etc all the time.

Running my Cisco 7960 at the same locations and it works fantastic with
no issues at all. 

Is anyone else using this softphone or does anyone know of a better
softphone or some hints on configuration that may make X-Lite work
better..?

TIA
