7. Issue you are experiencing ie dropped calls, choppy audio etc

I have been using Vonage for almost a year and it has been pretty good until lately. For the last couple of months, incoming phone calls break up a lot and the voice is garbled to the point that I can't understand it. This applies to local calls from my neighbor as well as interstate calls from my parents. Almost everytime I have the person calling hang up and I call them back. the voice quality is much better and is what I have experience in the past from Vonage.
Tonight I talked to a Vonage tech support rep and he had me put my voice adapter between the cable modem and my router to eliminate router issues. Didnt help.
If I remember correctly this started really messing up about 2-3 months ago which is the same time that Comcast started offering their phone service. Coincidence?
Any one help?

Outgoing calls fine...Incoming calls garbled


Well, you do have some packetloss on the incoming. That could be giving you some
I would think that Packet loss of 0.7% would cause very minor speech problems,
The issue you're describing, I have had lately for the past 2-3 weeks with my outbound
You can add me to this list - I'm surprised that more people don't seem to be having
I just talked to a tech support guy and he is forwarding my issue to the engineering
Sounds like this is a good start...As a correction to my response, I'm seeing this
