Hi,

I'm caught between suppliers and hoping someone can point me in the direction of what's wrong. We have a number of ShoreTel (Mitel) softphones which experience occasional jitter or at least what I would best describe as that. The issue happens on some calls but not all. When it happens, it is for the entire duration of the call. It is always in one direction. A subsequent call within a few minutes will be 100% OK.

There are no dropped packets on either switches or routers at either site. The connections are 100Mb MPLS 1:1 over fibre. QoS is configured. There are no sleep policies applied to the clients. Wireshark shows packets are tagged as they should be. The issue happens even when there is very little other network traffic, which is very light anyway, usually under 5Mb.

The biggest difference I can see with Wireshark of a bad call looking at the RTP stream is that the Skew between packets just accumulates. Jitter goes from 2ms on a good call to 8ms which still seems OK.

The RTP Analysis shows no gaps or highlights anything 'wrong' I can see.
