asterisk users - Aug 2005 - Asterisk TDM card connected to phone linesAND fax line

I tried this with no luck on the machine, seems the fax did not like
even ulaw.  Ended up just putting it inline, but of course, in a
multi-line setup it could be a problem. 

Just a word of advice, get another line for it if you can.  I fought for
about a year with my pingtel ip phone over a wireless connection, now I
got serious and got a normal line about 5 months ago.  Much better off
now... Only $45/month for a business line and I admit I prefer it.  Of
course, I still use ip lines through teliax and voipjet and they are
great.

Now I have 8 ip phones in 5 locations, and I couldn't be happier.

I do however have a static and volume problem on the zaptel 4 port card,
but working on it...

My experience with faxes is that, a document feeder machine is a must,
and although internet based fax sounds good, when your in a rush it just
does not cut it.

Regards,
Greg

Why even bother to do that much? Just put the 3rd port/line into its own
extension where s automatically dials the fax machine on 4. You can
still use 1, 2, and 3 for outbound if you group them and dial with one
of zaptel's grouping options.

Other idea being to make sure the fax machine picks up first, but this
issue's been discussed on the list before.
