Here is the QOS script that I use on my bridge. http://www.taylortelephone.com/asterisk/astshape
I have also had a very high success rate with Fax-->ATA-->SIP-->Asterisk-->SIP-->PSTN and the other way. The fax is a Brother MFC-440CN. I have posted most of my hylafax iaxmodem configs and other asterisk setup scripts. All are welcome. Steve, you have done a wonder full job on your spandsp library! THANK YOU I have the ability to do a lot of pure VOIP testing if you need it.

Its still real time, but not as tightly constrained to a smooth flow of data. If packets are delayed, and jitter is high, iaxmodem can be very tolerant, as long as the packet loss is really low. Your QoS should groom things in the other direction, and ensure a reasonably smooth outward flow of packets.
