Re: QoS Service ... does it really work ?? Thanks guys for all this information...
But I think about companies, which want to install a VoIP system....
that seems to me not really suitable for companies..
you can't ask people to stop downloading while phoning :-)
So, I can't really see any possibility for professional use... Seems to
be a bit dodgy !??
I installed in the company an FVX538, thinking that I would be able to
use VoIP systems...
So, the only solution would be the CTX1000 ???
