Vonage I'm going to guess.

I'm going to guess.
The MTA may or may not actually do what is really called QoS. But it doesn't matter because the chances your ISP supports QoS is nearly nil. With QoS, an application can reserve bandwidth, but everyone has to support it.
The MTA may or may not do QoS on the LAN side. If you have computers on the LAN that can do QoS (XP does if you don't turn it off) then that might work.
But my guess is that it is simpler than that. I'd be willing to bet that the MTA simply throttles the bandwidth available to the LAN port while in a call. This isn't perfect because you can't control how much data is going to come barrelling down from the outside no matter what you do (without real QoS). But, most people have way more download then upload. So if you just slow down the LAN to Internet connection, you can conserve upload and that will probably be enough.
This is all guess work.
Many people have said that putting the MTA in front of the router slows them down all the time, even if not on a call. Can't say about that myself.
Read The Full Thread: QOS on the Motorola VT1000
• Could one of the Vonage gurus on this site be so kind as to explain how the Motorola
• Indeed correct, the Motorola MTA is doing simple bandwidth throttling.
Frankly,
• The MTA only does QOS to the internet once the data hits the internet it is best effort.
