If I had service like you, I'd rate it high as well.
The core issue is ViaTalk stands alone in pushing ALL the call traffic thru 3rd party servers ( mostly for call recording )and then onto the destination.
If your close to a server like you, your likely not to have the issues many of us experience. Almost everyone else ( VOIP providers ) just does the initiation of the call, the call it self goes to the closest PSTN termination point
Top this off with the never ending ping pong on the server failover, it becomes a random event on the phone quality.
Its not a question of my ISP, I have 4.4 on the VOIP tests, My Internet is 10/1 and speed tests show near this, for cable, Bright-house here in Central Florida is actually very good, thank to FIOS coming to town.
I realise, unless it happens to YOU, its meaningless ... doesn't mean its not real and not wider spread. |
