Re: easy to kill voip

I have very little knowledge about VoIP network behavior, but couldn't you simply write an app that "padded" packets with a bunch of garbage to the point that the the packet size was similar to that of HTTP streaming video? Or would that exceed the capacity of most 3G networks?

To me, jitter is the only sure-fire way of killing VoIP.

Jitter can be compensated for by adding a small delay (buffering). You probably can't artificially induce enough jitter to make conversing impossible without seriously impacting other types of services as well.
