What I really want to know is if the results are independent from the particular VOIP service. I am trying to find out if I am having trouble with Vonage or Comcast. My phone quality is (from testyourvoip) is all over the place. One minute it is great and 3 mins later it is terrible.
Thanks

Brix Networks, who provides testyourvoip.com, provides commercial test and performance monitoring solutions for VoIP networks. So, yes, their tests are carrier agnostic.
They basically send a predetermined pattern through your Internet connection in the same way a VoIP phone (adapter or softphone) would and measure the quality of the transfer.
Their Golden Phone service will actually measure the call quality across your VoIP service provider's network. However it is intended not to measure your service provider as much to measure your connection. It is not intended as a replacement for testyourvoip but it may indicate provider problems if you get good results from the applet and poor results from golden phone.
In summation, if you are having questionable results from TestYourVoip.com you do not have a Vonage problem. It is most likely a Comcast problem but it could be a problem father upstream.
