My call quality also seems better since I've switched on the VPN. I do not have numerical proof of this, but it sure seems like my voice calls are crystal clear now.

My guess is Spectrum has been rate limiting port 5060 for a while, and finally just turned it off.

Nice.

With standard SIP implementations port 5060 is used for signaling and RTP for the actual media uses different (negotiated) ports.

Rate limiting 5060 wouldn’t have any impact on call quality.
