Significant Latency: GoogleVoice forwarded to PhonePower Number
dwhitejazz:
Obihai support is telling me I should port my GoogleVoice number to PhonePower. Surprised they had no suggestions for resolving the problem.
I'm not seeing anything in the router logs indicating there are dropped packets or blocked ports.
Speed test at http://myspeed.visualware.com/index.php gives me a high 4.2 rating for VOIP.
Does anyone have a list of ports that should be forwarded just for GoogleVoice? Again, I'm not seeing anything in the logs for the AT&T U-Verse router indicating this is the issue. I believe I have all the correct ports forwarded.
The latency is over a second when forwarded through GoogleVoice. No problems with latency when the PhonePower number is called directly (i.e. GoogleVoice is not in the communication chain).
PhonePower support says this is not an issue on their end and that I need to contact GoogleVoice.

I have the same problem with latency having used GV for years with my obi100. Now that I have switched to PP and GV is forwarded to it, the latency of over a second makes two way conversation nearly impossible. Almost have to pretend we're on walkie talkies and say 'Over'.
Here is the best to worst connections:
Best:
GV via PC speaker / mic, hardwire lan (in or out)
GV via PC speaker / mic, WiFi (in or out)
Barely OK:
PP outbound via OBi
PP # called direct inbound via OBi
Terrible:
GV # called inbound via OBi (Outside Caller -> GV # -> PP -> OBi )
I am seriously thinking of canceling PP and get the MagicJack GV software and set it to run on my Media Center PC.
I don't want to port my GV # to anywhere as I use the SMS / TXT of GV for most everything.

I know this doesn't help but I have had zero issues of latency whether inbound or outbound and whether the person had VOIP or cell. I guess this is just to suggest that there must be other factors in play causing this for some folks.

Same problem with Vestalink.
