Hi Skip. No idea - He asked the question, I gave him an answer. 
Seems about normal to me. Crappy old stuff just won't die. I'm trying to 
diagnose a faxing problem right now.....

Re: [EDI-L] bisync over a IP based phone? Hello Travis, 

Why in the world would anyone attempt to even do this? 20 year old technology, 
while great at the time (I was there!) is so error-prone and unreliable, not to 
mention slower than spit running uphill. Might be fun for a school project to 
show the history of telecommunications and how it has changed but in the 'real 
world'? Not so much. 

Cheers,

My first response would have been that this is a really bad idea, but it's been 
so long since we used bisync - I had forgotten how slow a baud rate those used. 
Aren't they 4800 or 9600? If it's not going above like 14400, you *may* be able 
to find a solid ATA that will work for you. As long as the ATA is connected to 
the phone switch via a LAN, and nothing remote. Higher (read normal) baud rates 
with modems or faxes in general do not work over VoIP. The slower the better 
your chance of success. It would be really sad if you had to slow your bisync 
down to keep it working. ;)

Hi, 
Would an old bisync modem connection to a van still work if the phone line it 
was using was switched from a landline to an IP phone? 
Has anyone done this? We're converting to AS2 but our phone guys want to make 
this switch right away. Thanks. TS
