I use Google Voice/Hangouts constantly throughout the day for work calls, conference calls, etc. Everything works fine when I am hard wired, but when I use my phone or tablet people constantly say they her me get the "jitters" and I am "breaking up."
I have clear line of sight between myself and my wireless router and there is no other network in the immediate area. I am using channel 6 and 146, wireless N and AC only. All of my devices are very recent, 2014 Macbook Pro, HTC One M8, etc. All of my devices show a very strong connectivity rating. For example, my phone is showing a 72Mbps link speed currently and I am about 10 feet from the router using the 2.4G network. I tested using both the 2G and 5G networks and the issues were repeatable on either.
When I test using speedtest or similar I can constantly pull about 90M down and 20M up so I dont think its an issue with throughput.
I have all of the advanced settings enabled in in the router, so I am assuming some of these should be either modified or disabled. I just am not sure which ones should be enabled/disabled and if I should tweak/adjust the RTS/DTIM/Beacon values from the factory specifications.
I am hoping someone can advise on which settings should be modified and which ones to avoid touching.
I am not using QoS as there is no need with 100M connection unless running some P2P stuff or other heavy bandwidth applications. I don't push files locally and am not a heavy bandwidth hog as I use virtual desktops and such for remote connectivity into customers data centers and such.
I welcome any help or suggestions.
