<div style>From FS perspective in the middle, we can&#39;t tell its echo or not because we are just passing the data along and we&#39;re typically getting it 30-70 ms too late.  </div><div style><br></div><div style><br></div>

Today we tried ooVoo conference system with theirs client using same<br>
boxes and microphones - again, no echo. How this can be? Is it only<br>
