FYI, here is the same test done with my computer connected directly to the cable modem and the Vonage router taken out of the loop (still couldn't simulate VoIP):

I have posted results with and without QoS enabled in my WRT54GL. I have the upstream bandwidth set to 250 Kbps when enabled. I keep QoS enabled because if I don't I lose voice quality (far end can't hear me talking) when I test upload during a call.
Once I set the QoS I can talk and run speed test with no problem. My concern is the difference betweem my Vonage test results with and without QoS enabled. My Upload speed is 122,464 kbps slower. The VonageVoip Analysis says I can support 4 lines without QoS and 3 lines with.
My configuration is cable modem>WRT54GL>RT31P2
TEST RESULTS WITHOUT QoS ENABLED:
Download 4,923,288 bps Upload 369,536 bps QOS 99% RTT 28 ms MaxPause 81 ms
TEST RESULTS WITH QoS ENABLED : Download 4,924,104 bps Upload 247,072 bps QOS 99% RTT 26 ms MaxPause 64 m
My concern is the difference betweem my Vonage test results with and without QoS enabled. My Upload speed is 122,464 kbps slower.
Can you not just set the upload speed higher? I have almost the same test results as you without QoS. I have my upload speed set at 340kbs - that way I get 340kbs up. It may not be the 370kbs or so I might be able to get sometimes, but its a safe number since I haven't seen my speeds drop below that.

Well I changed my upstream QoS in the WRT54GL to 340. I initiated a Voip call and ran the VonageVoip speed test. The results are below. The call quality was very good in both directions. Think I'll leave the QoS at 340 !
Thanks again arcking ( I really do like the WRT54GL) !
My Results : While on Voip call Download 4,840,072 bps Upload 255,320 bps QOS 99% RTT 24 ms MaxPause 123 ms
My Results : While no Voip call Download 4,924,400 bps Upload 336,000 bps QOS 99% RTT 33 ms MaxPause 97 ms
GARBLED INCOMING CALLS. XP home, used Vonage 2 years as only phone service. 2 lines. Motorola modem, D-link latest firmware as of 10 days. Adelphia ISP.

You're inquiring about your QoS score from the forum test, and hopefully those in the know will jump in with some comment. In the meanwhile, how is the quality from a subjective viewpoint? Presumably you have some issue or you wouldn't be working with customer service.
Edit: Oops. I see the inquiry wasn't just about the QoS score, but also cited garbled calls.
