Hi,

use G.711, and you'll have ISDN quality!
Tradidional analog adaptors for ISDN do the same,
and (analog) faxing over ISDN is working fine, isn't it?



I would expect FAX over ISDN to work better than fax over G.711 on some networks.
ISDN doesn't have the jitter/packet loss of IP networks (unless you control the whole path or has some nice SLA :-)). The price being, is a circuit switched technology.


Clue: G.711 is the codec used over ISDN :-)


Ok, now I understand why you mentioned that common codec, let me clarify my remark (I can blame on english not being my native language I guess :-)..,
'replace' fax over G.711 by fax over G.711 over IP :-)
The point being, Fax over VOIP (even using G.711), I don't believe would be as reliable as Fax over an ISDN b-channel :-) Better now ?
