Abstract: A facility for conveying first side of a voice call from a first participant to a second participant is described. Over the duration of the voice call, the facility receives the first side of the call. The facility seeks to forward the received first side of the voice call to a downstream node on a path to the second participant. The facility records the received first side of the call for at least part of the call. The facility identifies a just-ended portion of the voice call for which forwarding of the received first side of the voice call was unsuccessful. In response, the facility transmits to the downstream node the recorded first side of the voice call that coincides with the identified portion of the voice call.
