[Asterisk-Users] Hopping through iax servers

[david kwok]

I am wondering whether hopping through a number of iax servers would 
decrease the call quality.

My iax server connect to PSTN termination provider in Australia. It 
works fine if calls are made to local areas. However, if calling 
internet state there are constant packet loss. This is also the case 
when calling overseas. I presume if calling internet state. The call is 
routed through the registration iax server and route to the interstate 
iax termination. If I am calling overseas, it may route through local 
iax and its international trunk iax and overseas iax since they need it 
for record keeping purposes.
