-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 - -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi list, I'm having difficulties when receiving faxes from the PSTN with this relatively simple installation: PSTN <--PRI--> GW <--T.38--> Asterisk The gateway is a Mediatrix 3301 (firmware Dgw 2.0.14.251). It's configured to transmit faxes as T.38. I may have missed something in its configuration, but it does switch to T.38 when a fax is detected. On the Asterisk side, I'm using 10.2.1 with spandsp-0.0.6-pre20 and ReceiveFax from res_fax_spandsp. ${FAXSTATUS} returns FAILED and ${FAXERROR} "Disconnected after permitted retries". I did a network capture, attached to this mail: from my understanding, T.38 is accepted by Asterisk, then there seems to be some UDPTL traffic, which I don't understand... Why does it fail, and what is wrong? I'd appreciate if someone could send me advice / suggestions.

Hi Jean-Denis, Your log shows the Mediatrix GW has problems. It sends a DCS signal to the Asterisk box, but doesn't following it with TCF as it should. The asterisk box times out waiting for TCF and tries to take recovery action which fails. Spandsp has some workarounds for bugs in Mediatrix boxes. They usually work OK.
