[Asterisk-Users] Is there a BIG difference between a softphone like X-Lite and a hard VOIP phone
Before I spend an extra $100 dollars for a "hard phone", I would like to know if I can expect a significant delay reduction and quality improvement over a product like X-Lite. Of course it will depend so here are a few pointers on my config: Workstation ------------------ - 1.4Ghz AMD Athlon - Windows XP Professional - 802.11g connection to a 100Mhz switched network I tried with different codecs (uLaw, GSM) and could not detect any significant difference. Server ---------- - Intel Celeron 1.15Mhz - Suse Linux 9.0 - Kernel 2.4.21 - Asterisk CVS-02/03/04 (still trying to find out the command to check for the version) A few things I need to try - impact of wired vs wireless - impact of processor upgrade on the server (I'm going to install a standalone server with a dual pentium and also try the CompactPCI motorola server I bought last week end !!!)
