Optimizing the network quality without a click

If you cannot get a good service quality for your IP phone calls, but that you don’t feel yourself capable to enhance the quality of service (QoS), here’s the somewhat Holy Grail: the new Linksys Network Optimizer.
The new device has been designed for gaming and IP phone applications, announced during the E3, the gaming exhibition currently held in Los Angeles.
The Linksys Network Optimizer sits between the broadband router and its related cable or RJ45 modem cable. A built-in monitoring system should boost traffic for those 2 hungry bandwidth sets of applications ― especially when you’re playing and talking in the same time.
Linksys doesn’t precise if you’ll end up with a nifty network quality from a horrible one. If you cannot fix your QoS, your last alternative would be 1) Switch broadband provider or 2) Go plugged yourself in a public hotspot.
