Port forwarding...

SIPit:
1) Does your rv042 router have the latest firmware?  If not, try updating it.
2) In addition to disabling the Firewall, did you disable SPI (Stateful Packet Inspection)?  If not, try disabling both.
3) What is your MTU setting on the rv042?  It appears that the rv042 has a lot of MTU issues.  Try manually setting it to 1500 since you have cable Internet.

Yeah, I thought about suggesting that too; but my understanding is that OP is just using GV, not a SIP provider.  GV doesn't use SIP, so the SIP ALG setting shouldn't matter (won't hurt to disable it).

True.  I guess I was just taking the "try a few things and see if anything helps" approach.  I do know that the router can make a real difference — I'm pretty sure that at some point in the past one of my sons bought a router (and it was a Linksys, but I don't recall the model number although I'm pretty sure it's not the one the OP has) that did horrible things to VoIP, and when he exchanged it for a different brand, everything started working great again.  I'd certainly try tweaking settings in the router first, but if all else fails it might be worth borrowing or buying a different router to see if that makes any difference.

One other thought is that maybe trying to prioritize traffic is the wrong thing to do.  What I've heard is that very few people know how to do it correctly, and if you do it wrong you can make things worse.  Just a thought.

Thank you all for replying...

I had seen the sticky post, but the router does not have that option.  

1. My router has the latest firmware
2. I have disabled both (when you disable the firewall, you disable DOS, SPI, WAN Request blocking etc...)
3. My MTU was at 1492, but has been changed to 1500.  

I installed wireshark, and I this is what I get when I get an interruption in my call:

These four snippets from wireshark are the errors I get for the Obihai device when the call breaks up (i.e. I cannot here anything because I just clicked on a google search or refreshed a webpage.  The first two are for a google voice call, the last two are using the echo test **9-222-222-222
