Well, if you were using stand-alone fax machines then that was part of your problem. That was actually the only part of my post that was in jest. -- Carlos Alvarez TelEvolve 602-889-3003 Fax has been a long road in the VOIP arena and asterisk. For T.30 & T.38 to ATA gateways you need the right mix of equipment at both ends. Vendors that support T.38 or PRI's with good T.38 supported hardware gateways work best. On the fax gateway side Steve, and spandsp are god sent. Fax works well when you get your karma in alignment you must set it up correctly. Our systems have processed over 500,000+ faxes this year with very few fax machine compatibility issues. From a technology standpoint I too look forward to the day where we can get rid of faxes, but from a business perspective I am happy to process faxing for our paying customers. Fax + Asterisk can work quite well. Bryant Zimmerman (ZK Tech Inc/interNetGR) (616) 855-1030
