[cisco-voip] Clustering over WAN - Design question

It sounds to me like your problem is the frequent WAN failure more so than
the lack of a subscriber at the remote location.   How is it acceptable for
the data network to be down so often?

Can you resolve that or build in redundancy with an equal cost, possibly
diverse path?
