About a month ago, Fierce VoIP reported on VoIP quality testing conducted by Keynote Systems. The results proved quite interesting.
Keynote determined (based on testing providers such as Packet8, Vonage, Verizon VoiceWing, Lingo, etc.) that most VoIP users can expect “merely tolerable” telephone service when compared to an at&t POTS line.
One of the VoIP providers tested failed to achieve any calls with an MOS score of 4.0 or better (ouch).
Why did Voip Tech Chat wait more than a month to post this news? Patrick and Fred were too busy talking about Lifelock and Ben Affleck movies.
Oh, and Asterisk Voip News posted that a cool new IP Phone with a huge video screen is coming soon.
As VoIP enthusiasts, we’re often forgetful that not everyone speaks in acronyms. So in today’s post, we would like to introduce you to Voice over Internet Protocol’s Quality of Service — or, VoIP QoS.
