Packet loss is going to be pretty obvious across the "wire" due to the
way it is normally handled (fill in dropped packet with previous packets
data).
With that said depending on the wireless (signal strength / noise) there
could be potential issues (packet loss, distortion, static, delay in
sound), however if there are this can be easily mitigated by the use of
the hard line. Just my 2 cents. - Tim
This is good information to know, thanks Tim. Fortunately most of
what we're doing isn't going to be dependent on the quality of the
connection, but rather building additional functionality into the
services themselves. Your well-stated concerns above will continue to
apply across the board when using Fedora Talk or other VoIP systems.
