Re: tmobile voice

TMobile is just like any indie VoIP it use the public internet right away. Cable VoIP's and U-Voice stay inside the company network till going to the switch. Which means is real QoS and doesn't affect your internet speeds. Which for most people isn't an issue but if you max out your download/upload it can be.

Re: tmobile voice

And it did have some issues when you maxed out your connection. I tested the t-mobile voip router and if i maxed out either my upload or download, the other person had a hard time hearing me. Others who tried the same thing did not have any issue. So, your mileage may vary.

Re: tmobile voice

Same here with Call Vantage. I was using the 2wire that's part of U-Verse fine. Then suddenly when I was downloading files for work or uploading stuff and it was a constant stream (were talking gigs at a time). Then the other person couldn't hear me and I could tell it was choppy. I had to add my Linksys QoS router into the mix to fix it.

Others said they had no problem though.

Re: tmobile voice

I use Skype all the time... and even over a VPN tunnel through a Squid proxy server, and it still works.

I'll admit that it is not as robust as a dedicated VoIP like cable or Uverse style.

I do like the Cable VoIP in the fact that the overall Internet connection can be hosed, and VoIP will still work (router outage in my area).

I'm glad to see (although too late for me!) that AT&T has decided to lower its price on VoIP (although it wasn't until CV stopped taking orders). This at least brings a triple play a little closer to my price point.

Eg. Over first year period:

TWC: $89 + ~$5 franchise fees for VoIP, 6Mbps/512kbps, Digital TV + 3 analog sets:
Monthly: $95
Year: $1140
AT&T: (1 tuner) $59 for U200, $35 for 6Mbps, $30 for Uverse VoIP
Monthly: $124 (assuming no other fees!)
Year: $1488, $1188 after $300 cash back

Not a whole lot of difference, slight advantage, TWC - extra TV's for free, no MIR cash back waiting.. and of course, the most important Uverse Voice is NOT AVAILABLE in the Los Angeles area!! That $30 VoIP = $57 POTS.

That's why for indie voip a good QoS solution is a great idea.

Re: tmobile voice

You shouldn't be seeing that. That means your RG is having issues or it's wiring. Try posting in the U-Verse forum.
