I would consider my VoIP altq rules a work in progress at the moment, but defining the upload bandwidths seem to be quite sensitive. I have ADSL PPPoA 1536/256 kbit/s and define my upload bandwidth as 212kbit/s and VoIP seems to be working great (quality at both ends). However if I define my upload bandwidth as 213kbit/s then it is as if I have just switched altq off. Setting it lower than 212kbit/s then gradually hurts download speeds (with pri of empty acks to minimize that problem coming second to VoIP). So it might be a good idea to know what you have to play with first. If you estimate too high, your VoIP queues are not going to be effective and you might waste lots of time trying to figure out why queues which should be working fine, are not.
