color=#0000ff size=2>Maybe you're transcoding on the server with cpu intensive
codecs? That would be the first thing I'd look at. Try using G.711
(ulaw) on both SIP phones and remove reinvite=no and canreinvite=no from
your phone declarations in sip.conf.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=341515314-31012005>Audio coming
from Asterisk (the demo ) is excellent when using a SIP phone on the LAN to
Asterisk,</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
