Well … I sort of agree with you and Wenger and sort of don’t. They have an upper layer congestion control. Basically when the congestion gets bad, the humans on both ends hang up the call and go call each other on their cell phones. 

But the bottom line of all this is we all wish we had better congestion control for interactive voice and video and RMCAT is working on that and it is hard and going to take awhile to figure out and probably longer to deploy.
