        voip works great with priq.  I set mine up using the wizard and the tweaked it to my config.
        I created 2 aliases 1 for my onsite pbx's and 1 for my sip providers and used those entries in the wizard.

        Use the single lan, multi wan wizard when you start.  Use PRIQ and you don't have to worry about upload and download speeds.

        the wizard will create floating rules which you may have to tweak but when you get that far post again.

        Create the aliases in firewall –> aliases before you run the wizard.

        BTW make sure the nic's you are using support traffic shaping before you start :)

          IIRC, Georgeman has said that the traffic shaping doesn't seem to work very well with multi-WAN, but I could be mistaken.  Read a few of the longer TS threads where Georgeman has chimed in.  Otherwise, you just need to do what BeerCan said.  A simple PRIQ shaper with only VoIP support.

            I did create the aliases for my 2x onsite pbx system. One for elastix and one for vicidial.

            " Custom Bandwidths are greater than 30%. Please lower them for the wizard to continue. " what should be the right speed for Upload bandwidth for each WAN(interface) and Download bandwidth(speed) for Voice over IP phones for my setup 2x wans (2mb up/2mb down) LAGG 1x lan.

            "make sure the nic's you are using support traffic shaping before you start " how will i know?

            "the wizard will create floating rules which you may have to tweak but when you get that far post again." need help here. im kind a lost here.

            Thank you
