Solutions: 

If you are noticing a new issue with call quality (non-recurring issue), consider these troubleshooting steps. 

  1. Reboot the router/modem and retest. Oftentimes this should help resolve new or temporary issues. 
  2. Ensure the local internet network meets the Nextiva network guidelines. For more information, click here. It is good to look for possible trends when call quality is diminished, such as time of day, day of the week, or specific phone numbers. 
  3. If the problem is persistent, export the call details to provide to the local internet provider for further investigation of the issue. For instructions on how to search and export the call details from Nextiva Voice Analytics, click here
