JMC1981 asked if anyone on this forum found satellite internet compatible with Ooma. I can't say, but I have wireless internet provided by a tower that is 5 miles away. Most of the time, my hub works fine. But on some calls I can hear the echo of my voice, and I can tell by the responses of the caller that there is a delay in their reception of my side of the conversation.

woodbutcher,
Do a VoIP quality test: http://www.phonepower.com/speedtest
Check the "Advanced" tab

You may not like what you see with your internet....probably large jitter and long TCP delay.murphy wrote:Jitter should be less than 5 ms.
Packet loss should be 0.
Download and upload QOS should be at least 70%.
Maximum TCP delay should be under 100 ms.

Can someone check out what these numbers would look like with Telo Air (Wifi dongle)?
After ~24 hours from reboot:
RX Bytes
TX Bytes

Check the weather outside when you are having problems. If it's raining, snowing, low overcastm fog or higher wind conditions where a lot of dirt/dust is carried in the air; these are the times that most people have problems when using Wireless communications of some distance away.woodbutcher wrote:JMC1981 asked if anyone on this forum found satellite internet compatible with Ooma.

Thansk murphy.
I am Modem/Router/Ooma. Seems like my wifi dongle Rx, Tx read about the same.
1 hr wifi
RX Bytes 10909847 (10.4 MiB)
TX Bytes 611468 (597.1 KiB)
2 hr wifi
RX Bytes 22917607 (21.8 MiB)
TX Bytes 997114 (973.7 KiB)
But the Rx seems to be a lot higher with wifi than ethernet....probably mostly communication with router vs Ooma central?
1 hr ethernet
RX Bytes 525445 (513.1 KiB)
TX Bytes 494505 (482.9 KiB)
2 hr ethernet
RX Bytes 1116151 (1.0 MiB)
TX Bytes 857349 (837.2 KiB)

Re: Download Allowance
I can't explain an apparent 20 to 1 difference.
I would not expect the USB protocol to add that much data although it is a synchronous protocol and the clocking runs all of the time whether there is any data to move or not.
