BTW, I also reduced my bandwidth requirements to 50KB. Testing indicates that Comcast is providing 217 - 230 KB upstream connectivity and between 1.5 qnd 3 megs down
Here is what happens: 1] The host of the conference call connects to person #2 2] Host connects to person #3Results: The host and the first person called can hear everything. But the second person called can only hear the host.
PLUS there is a mysterious "beep" every 20 seconds or so. The beep is usually not present in a simple two party call.
This is not a bandwidth issue, as Dewayne H., who has oddles of bandwidth, was just able to replicate this failure.
Does anyone on IP have any idea of what is going on with Vonage? Given AT+T's entrance into this market, I would hope Vonage would fix this ASAP. I would hope they would even allow 5 way calls.
Of course, iChat does not even allow 3 way audio chats. A pet peeve.
