Re: Using VoIP with Satellite Internet
said by Skyway  :It all is determined by traffic shaping I guess? My Two cent I had the opportunity to try Zingotel Free
for a couple of months back in the March/April time fram.
on WB It work real good sometimes and sometimes it was
slow but it always worked.
Then last Month the opportunity came back around to try again but this time it was Very Different. For the most part it would not work at all.
What happened could it be "traffic shaping".
That was my only expenerence with VOIP on WB |

I find VoIP essential nowadays. It beats me why any satellite service provider would block it in any way, especially as none of them seems to be able to provide their own alternative. If more WB users would protest, maybe they'd rethink their policy.
Skyway, I've done a little P2P since I got the system last week and can say that it works for me. Slow speeds at below 10 KBs, but it works.

Just a comment or two:
roadsscolar is in Canada and Canadian KAband works quite good with VOIP..WildBlue does not....
Also Canadian KABand doesn't work well with P2P programs, but WildBlue does....
It all is determined by traffic shaping I guess?
