and again about VoIP

I have looked up the topics with the same problem that do have I but found no solution to it. The problem is with IP telephone. We have two MT 2.8.24 routers connected together. The scheme is the following: internet => MT1 => MT2 => clients home router => IP phone
When the client is calling somebody, he listenes perfectly but the person to whom he is calling listenes very badly with lots of interruptions.
I thought that the problem was that on the MT1 there were no rules for the phone but i have made them. the problem didnt disappear. the rules are as follows:

MT1:
[admin@MT1] ip firewall mangle>
0 in-interface=ether1 dst-address=1.2.3.4/32 action=accept mark-flow=phone-up mark-connection=phone
1 in-interface=ether2 connection=phone action=accept mark-flow=phone-down

[admin@MT1] queue tree>
0 name=“phone-up” parent=adsl flow=phone-up limit-at=128000 queue=ethernet-default priority=5 max-limit=196000
burst-limit=0 burst-threshold=0 burst-time=0
1 name=“phone-down” parent=ether1 flow=phone-down limit-at=128000 queue=ethernet-default priority=5 max-limit=196000
burst-limit=0 burst-threshold=0 burst-time=0



MT2:
[admin@MT2] ip firewall mangle> pr
0 in-interface=int1 dst-address=1.2.3.4/32 action=accept mark-flow=phone-up mark-connection=phone
1 in-interface=int2 connection=phone action=accept mark-flow=phone-down

[admin@MT2] queue tree>
0 name=“ip-phone-up” parent=ALL-Up flow=phone-up limit-at=128000 queue=ethernet-default priority=5 max-limit=196000
burst-limit=0 burst-threshold=0 burst-time=0
1 name=“ip-phone-down” parent=ALL-Down flow=phone-down limit-at=128000 queue=ethernet-default priority=5
max-limit=196000 burst-limit=0 burst-threshold=0 burst-time=0

when I tested the phone in my office the speed was 64000/64000 and it was enough with the priority 8.
any brilliant ideas?:wink:

I would suspect the client home router. If it doesn’t do any prioritization and has other outgoing traffic or can’t spare outgoing traffic on a half duplex link, it may be causing the drops.

tnx! but the problem wasnt in the clients router. probably its because the small upload rate on the channel..

What codec are you (or your client) using? Try to use some other. For example g729.
