TimPawlak Posted May 2, 2007 CID Share Posted May 2, 2007 1400 ms he is saying... You won't be able to use Vonage on that Satallite connection.. too slow... he was wondering if he could reduce his ping time to be able to use vonage, and that answer is no. you cant unless you get a faster ISP funny thing happened the other day... i was at my uncles and one of his friends came over that had comcast.. my uncle has huges...he said "this internet is REALLY slow, who is his provider?" i respond ... "Walk with me, and i will show you... i took him outside and pointed up... and said... do you see that wayyy up there? he says: no... me: yup, thats spacenet!

Siryak Posted May 3, 2007 CID Share Posted May 3, 2007 I feel your pain. Fellow Wildblow user here. They implemented a new traffic shaping called DAMA in November that put the pings in the crapper. Even if you are on the new satellite that is not loaded you will still have bad ping times. Not really anything you can do about it though. To be honest though Vonage didn't really work that well before DAMA. It worked, but there was a long delay before the voice started coming through.
