Idirect when possible. I've also used the Viasat systems as well and from all the installs I've seen the hub operators never really understood how to run the hub to optimize for voip so I've pretty much given up on that platform. It seems that Idirect operators are the only ones who know how to make the system work well. If you want the best of the best nothing touches C-band though. Yes its low bandwidth, but C-band you can bet your life on... Most low end sat services are way over subscribed to start with and when you add voip in to the mix voip is the first thing to lose.

What is the effect of latency on the VoIP path and how much is generally tolerable? routing via satellite adds about a quarter second of latency to the path. Is that too much?
