VoIP One-way Audio and Voice drops
-
Sounds like a plan. For it to be the Meraki is the one thing that would not be surprising.
-
It seems that it is only audio going out not audio coming in. During the periods of packet loss I can still hear the 2nd person (or myself if it is my cell phone) talking but I can't talk to them. Our Network Extender and the Vitelity SIP trunk are also experiencing the same thing.

That's because you have RTP. Each direction is unrelated to the other. So the stream of your voice and the stream of their voice are just two unidirectional streams that don't know about each other. So something causing them to fail would not necessarily impact you and vice versa.

Yep, I found it interesting that RTP is only being affected one way regardless of packet loss.

Interesting. This is a similar problem I'm having with my C@C hosted FPBX and G-Voice sample box, and I'm behind a SonicWall NSA 2400.
I can hear the outside caller, but they get blips when they can't hear me. -

Typically packet loss is one directional. When a ping fails, normally either the ping makes it out but can't return. Or it doesn't make it out but it could have returned. For both directions to fail (when the entire connection is not dead) is unlikely.

I can hear the outside caller, but they get blips when they can't hear me.Does it cut in and out, or just die?

Cuts in and out, exactly like @coliver's situation. Frankly considering C@C and g-voice, I'm surprised it works as well as it does.

I've done freebpx on a raspberry Pi with google voice and never had issues with it. Likely it's all C@C issues.

Damn, nice - I really need to do this at home!
-
And right around 4:00pm everything goes back to normal.
-
I assume this is because people are going home or slacking off as they prepare to?

I spoke too soon looks like I am still at ~23% packet loss from the pbx to the firewall and 19% from the firewall to the pbx
Generally people are fairly good at working up to the last minute here. At least from what I've seen.

It will be interesting to see how it continues to show as the end of the day approaches and passes.

If yesterday or Monday was any indication, it generally works fine. At least compared to the rest of the day.

I am more curious about the packet loss as the day winds down... does it drop to zero or near zero, or does it stay high?

I'll let you know. Right now I just did 170 packets and saw 34% packet loss.

Definitely sounds like something is overloaded.

Yep, @GregoryHall is helping me narrow it down. Just waiting on my ISP to get back to me so we can setup something he requested. Small town ISPs aren't the most responsive I've come to understand.
