What is your upstream? I've found that is usually the killer for me. If I'm talking on voipo and presenting a Webex session they are both using up my upstream. What happens is I would hear my clients just fine, but they said I would get fuzzy or my presentation would take a while to change on their end. If you have 256kbps upstream and plan to talk and do anything else that may involve uploading you may get fuzzy. I had to upgrade to Time Warner's turbo road runner for that reason. If you just talk then you will probably be fine.

Part of this can be solved by using QoS on your egress device—just give VoIP priority over everything else and your calls should stay on the clear side, but your presentations will still suffer—but your case does appear to be one of insufficient bandwidth overall.
