Reduce Bandwidth

From PhonePower Knowledge Base
Jump to: navigation, search

If you find that your VoIP service is using to much of your available bandwidth you can lower the amount of bandwidth used by changing your audio codec. By default all accounts use the G711u audio codec. You can change this to G729a to use less bandwidth for your call audio at the trade off of reduced audio quality.
