Vonage Having had a look at the FAQ for this app on the MyVoIPSpeed site it seems to me that
Having had a look at the FAQ for this app on the MyVoIPSpeed site it seems to me that the test is run over a TCP/IP connection. While that's a useful indicator, bear in mind that Vonage (like most Voip services) actually use UDP.
The jitter figures, being TCP, can probably be ignored for Voip purposes to be honest as TCP/IP is a handshaking protocol - UDP isn't. In fact the throughput of a UDP stream can be almost double that of TCP (that's why UDP is used for time-sensitive streaming like voice or video).
So I wouldn't totally rely on it.
That said, it's a handy rough and ready guide and thanks to the forum owner for hosting it.
One key point to remember is that ADSL by it's very nature is asynchronous which means you cannot upload and download at the same time. A network connection is only as good as the weakest link, which means your upload speed (usually the lowest of the two) is actually the important number to look at.
As long as your router is providing QoS to your (Vonage) phone then you want to leave that switched on. The test is telling you that your QoS is doing it's job correctly - the test upload/download is being throttled by your router, which is exactly what should happen.
If you have audio problems, and you feel that your broadband provider is a good one and service quality should be better, then I'd take a look at your router QoS settings....
