I'm using voice comms of various types on a regular basis with no problems.
A quick play with a trace routing programme* shows me that the connection to the op's server appears to be fine.
Right up to the last hop, where it's losing about 10% of the ping packets (which if it's happening to voice comms i'm guessing will cause a problem).

*UO Trace - it's meant to be for checking the games servers, but it works, is easy to use (for any server) and free :p |
As i have said, is down to poor peer routing within VM itself and it aint going to get better (VM aint gonna fix it, either you have the problem or you dont)
