So, how are the WISP folk dealing with VOIP traffic as it becomes a
larger piece of their customer's traffic?  Does anyone have a way
to force a given VOIP endpoint to use larger data frames?  Or are
the WISPs forced to deal with with a shredded business plan because
their gear is optimized for large packets?  (Or am I simply
missing something?)

Or do you write a TOS that says: "Customer is not allowed to send and
receive lots of small packets quickly?"  :-)
