[Asterisk-Users] Linksys WRT54GP2-NA settings for performanceand low bandwidth?

[Paul Fielding]

Hmm... Except that if I bring my Vonage ATA for my Vonage line with me to 
the same hotel, I can get reliable connectivity.   Assuming the hotel isn't 
helping me on the QOS front, and the Hotel's connectivity is the last word, 
then my Vonage ATA should be choppy, as well, no?  This is what leads me to 
think I can do some tweaking....

later,

Paul
