So, The SonicWall Isn’t Working Out

The only feature that it is lacking, and I desperately need, is QoS. I run a lot of torrents (I’m a Linux ISO fanatic, collecting every ISO of every distro I can find) and I also run a VoIP PBX (3CX) with a SIP trunk to VoicePulse Connect. Unfortunately VoIP & BitTorrent don’t play well together without QoS of some kind.

Solution? I used to be a big fan of pfSense so I’m going to give it another shot. I’ve got a spare Dell PowerEdge 1550 (2xPIII 1.0GHz, 2048MB, 1x18GB U160 SCSI, 2×10/100 LAN) and just downloaded the pfSense 1.2 ISO. I shall go forth and install now!

Why not try pbxnsip, it runs on Windows, Linux and MAC.

Thanks

OK, I’ve checked out pbxnsip and it looks pretty slick. You’ve got mail Jonathan! :)
