Hi, We are recieving some faxes, but I would say that about 50% of them do not work. We don't know why... is it something with the faxes speed, volume, etc? Should we use a real fax machine? Using a TDM13B with a rxgain of about 5.0... Thank you for any help. -- Alexandre Leclerc
Try Hylafax, with external fax/modem, it works 99.999% It you try to route it via Asterisk (with NVFaxDetect) your success will be about 95% -- #Joseph On Fri, 2005-09-30 at 15:57 -0400, Alexandre Leclerc wrote:> Hi, > > We are recieving some faxes, but I would say that about 50% of them do > not work.

I have run into a similar situation. One of our older faxes at the office seems to not work with spandsp module. The newer faxes work just fine. When I watch the logs, there appears to be communication from * requesting the fax to "slow down". When the fax machine does not respond, * seems to say "forget it" and fail on the retrieval. I have not come up with a fix...regardless of rx/tx gains on the zaptel cards. -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Alexandre Leclerc Sent: Friday, September 30, 2005 12:57 PM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Revieving some fax problems Hi, We are recieving some faxes, but I would say that about 50% of them do not work.

I had some trouble going from bri>zaptel analog, but once I got the gain settings right, I would say it has worked well. Don't have stats, but any faxes I do send to it seem to go through.

I would say the problem here could fall in this category. Jason Walker a ?crit :> I have run into a similar situation. One of our older faxes at the office > seems to not work with spandsp module.
