384 is a pretty bad upload speed.
I have a lowly 128k upload speed and quality is not an issue unless I'm uploading/downloading a large file, then I get the choppy voice. With just regular web surfing there's no problem at all.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-SunRocket-Amazing-service-14656817 Tue, 25 Oct 2005 18:45:03 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-SunRocket-Amazing-service-14655149 said by Kobra007_:

384 is a pretty bad upload speed. Try to switch to WOW Cable, they offer 600-768 range upload speeds with their 6MB, and it is a true 6Mb, unlike Comcraps.
384 is plenty for voip. If you're running bit torrent or some other bandwidth hogging app, you'll have trouble. But otherwise, that isn't the issue.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-SunRocket-Amazing-service-14655149 Tue, 25 Oct 2005 14:47:51 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-SunRocket-Amazing-service-14655013 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-SunRocket-Amazing-service-14655013 Tue, 25 Oct 2005 14:26:57 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-SunRocket-Amazing-service-14654903 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-SunRocket-Amazing-service-14654903 Tue, 25 Oct 2005 14:11:19 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-SunRocket-Amazing-service-14646956 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-SunRocket-Amazing-service-14646956 Mon, 24 Oct 2005 14:15:53 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-SunRocket-Amazing-service-14643760 --

Speed is not as great an issue as latency. What are your pings to the SunRocket servers?
Pings are 100-130 ms.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-SunRocket-Amazing-service-14642791 Sun, 23 Oct 2005 21:59:53 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-SunRocket-Amazing-service-14642427
I can say that my SR experience has improved dramatically in the past few weeks. I have received some personal tech support and most of the issues with my service and feature set have been resolved. SR has given me the faith to stay with them, at least for now, unless the outages continue or get worse!

Features repaired recently:

1. caller id inbound and outbound
2. VM phone call notification and ability to access vm message from this phone call
3. gizmo failing power on self test
4. intermittent dropping of both phone calls when a call comes in on call waiting
5. VM messages having extremely loud static/hissing in background
6. call forwarding to a specific number

Features that have always worked for me:

1. Enhanced 911
2. email VM notifications and file attachments
3. call blocking by number
4. distinctive rings
5. faxing(with some tweaks in the beginning)
6. speed dial

And no, I have not imbibed any kool-aide of any type!:)

But I just checked. "Lan Configuration" - "Rate control" is disabled.

I don't recall reading any discussions about enabling or setting QoS on the Gizmo.

Its funny that after a time of satisfactory performance, all of a sudden my voice is breaking up. I turned off all my PCs and the problem persists. I'm getting 350 bps which is close to by 384 bps advertised uplink speed. I may have to call SR on this... But I already have an escalated ticket from 4 weeks ago (unrelated issue) that they haven't bothered to call me about.... ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-SunRocket-Amazing-service-14642329 Sun, 23 Oct 2005 20:53:52 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-SunRocket-Amazing-service-14641655 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-SunRocket-Amazing-service-14641655 Sun, 23 Oct 2005 19:25:04 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-SunRocket-Amazing-service-14641367 said by rugby:

That's usually a problem with your upload speed being crappy.
Yes, and the Speakeasy speed test says my upload speed is around 350bps... Seems like it should be enough. So I'm still not sure exactly whats going on... :)]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-SunRocket-Amazing-service-14641367 Sun, 23 Oct 2005 18:30:57 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-SunRocket-Amazing-service-14641009 said by leeb00:

I've been using SR for my long distance and have been pretty happy. But for the past few days people have been telling me that my voice is "breaking up".

I have a Comcast 6MBit/384k connection. I tried putting the Gizmo ahead of the router, but that didn't help. Not sure if this is a SR problem or something on my end.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-SunRocket-Amazing-service-14640942 Sun, 23 Oct 2005 17:19:57 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-SunRocket-Amazing-service-14639663 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-SunRocket-Amazing-service-14639663 Sun, 23 Oct 2005 13:10:18 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-SunRocket-Amazing-service-14639523 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-SunRocket-Amazing-service-14639523 Sun, 23 Oct 2005 12:40:43 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-SunRocket-Amazing-service-14639103 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-SunRocket-Amazing-service-14639103 Sun, 23 Oct 2005 11:09:57 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-SunRocket-Amazing-service-14639023 --

It has been nothing but downhill for me (although, except for last week's outages, things had improved a bit over the past couple weeks).]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-SunRocket-Amazing-service-14638589 Sun, 23 Oct 2005 08:49:19 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-SunRocket-Amazing-service-14638061

Since that point, i've had perfect clarity, no dropped calls, no busy signals, and no downtime whatsoever. Rocky start, but picture perfect since then!

Overall, my experiance with SunRocket has surpassed my experiance with VoicePulse by leaps and bounds. It has even passed the wife test, with her saying "I don't even realise this is a internet phone service!".

Mission accomplished, E911 service, and everything.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/SunRocket-Amazing-service-14637718 Sun, 23 Oct 2005 01:09:41 EDT
