To me this Voip Internet Accelerator Intelligent Packet Priority Engine does not live up to the proclaimed capabilities. I have the same problem as an internet technology guy who usses skype, vonage an routers etc, I have lots of uploads and downloads going on and this device no matter what I do I just don't see the great benefit. There is no solid indicator of what it is doing for me differently so I find it hard to recommend since I don't see a difference. There could be a benefit but I will never know what causes the slow down or not because no indicators of I am working as I am suppose to or better or worst because of the Voip Internet Accelerator Intelligent Packet Priority Engine
I was having problems with Vonage when I was downloading anything. I got one of these, plugged it in between my router and my cable modem and basically those problems all went away. Easy as that.It's not magic. If you have a poor network connection, then that's what you have, but it helped me be able to use my Vonage VoIP without worrying what was being downloaded at that moment.
What it does is give priority to outbound VOIP traffic during periods of heavy uploading (e.g. I just plugged it in between my router and cable modem and it went to work prioritizing my outbound traffic. This device does exactly what it says it will do and with zero configuration. P2P applications). It has been doing this quietly for several months without complaint.It is important to understand what this device can and can't do. It can't do anything to improve a bad connection from your ISP nor can it do anything about inbound traffic. I no longer have to shut down applications that upload a lot of traffic when I am on the phone nor do I have to mess around with QOS settings in aftermarket firmware on my router. This product fixed my problems 100%.
Provides some quality of service on VOIP traffic. This improves the quality of the call mostly at the other person's end. At full list it is pretty expensive for the modest improvement it provides. This product is slightly more effective the more PC's you have on your home network, providing the VOIP or like traffic (video streaming) with priority service. Your voice is slightly less broken due to the way it delivers the VOIP packets. It can make an otherwise bad call OK.
Firstly, this does make VOIP calls more stable, but it causes so many 'strange' browsing problems that I just had to stop using it. I really like the way that this device prioritises traffice, but as I said, too many problems and too little configuration. I am very technical and spent quite a bit of time trying to get this working well and unfortunately, I'm just better off without it.I am on 7000/896 DSL internet.
