The problem is Mobile Internet, not specifically O2 or the Modem.

It has 100ms to 2000ms latency, typically 150ms
High Jitter
speed varies from 0.050Mbps to  5Mbps +
Packet loss can be high or OK.

It's inherently unsuitable for VOIP. If more than about 10 people are

It's possible to get more consistent VOIP on 40Kbps dialup!
