Vonage Hi ed56,
I belong to one of the guys who is running his VT2442 behind a WRT54G
Hi ed56,
I belong to one of the guys who is running his VT2442 behind a WRT54G router for the simple reason that everything was set up (and mounted) before the Vonage router arrived.
(I changed the VT's IP to my default subnet, so I can get to the device easily. DHCP etc turned off as well.
Having trouble with the default linksys firmware I was looking for an alternative and decided on tomato. I had no experience with flashing at that time and I did not want to brick my router, so I did not go for dd-wrt. The winner was tomato, because in case something went wrong, it let me restore my linksys backup config-file ( or restore the original from linksys web page) with the click of a mouse button.
Sorry for the extended intro...
If you are experiencing no trouble with your voice quality then either your QoS-settings are good or you never use your whole bandwidth.
I tested my speed via http:speakeasy.net/speedtest plus downloaded (and uploaded ) some linux torrents while being on the phone. Whatever I tried, linksys never got the priority right - neither via MAC nor IP address.
(Note: I always prefer MAC over IP, because it creates less overhead)
Tomato does a great job for me (and dd-wrt for others I assume), so I can only conclude that the right firmware is an essential point.
Since you are uploading via ftp and http, I would call that "heavy traffic" and the usual upload speed of around 320 kbps (for cable connections) creates exactly that bottleneck.
I'd say - lucky you!
