I read the Thread between Steve Underwood and VladK and I also tried to
reproduce the scenarios.

Currently I get the following results:

1. T.38 FAX -> RxFAX
--------------------

1.1. FAX -> SIPURA SPA-2100 (T.38)
         -> OpenPBX T.38 pass-through
         -> RxFAX (T.38)
         = OK

1.2. FAX -> Grandstream HT-286/486 (T.38)
         -> OpenPBX T.38 pass-through
         -> RxFAX (T.38)
         = OK

1.3. FAX -> LINKSYS PAP2T (T.38)
         -> OpenPBX T.38 pass-through
         -> RxFAX (T.38)
         = ERROR



2. PSTN FAX -> T.38 SIP FAX
---------------------------

2.1. PSTN FAX -> SS7
              -> Asterisk
              -> OpenPBX T38Gateway()
              -> SIPURA SPA-2100 (T.38)
              = OK

2.2. PSTN FAX -> SS7
              -> CIRPACK Softswitch
              -> OpenPBX T38Gateway()
              -> Grandstream HT-286/486 (T.38)
              = ERROR (Grandstream will not ring ???)

2.3. PSTN FAX -> SS7
              -> CIRPACK Softswitch (SIP, no T.38)
              -> OpenPBX T38Gateway()
              -> LINKSYS PAP2T (T.38)
              = ERROR (communication error, bad pages)



3. T.38 SIP FAX -> PSTN FAX
---------------------------

3.1. FAX -> SIPURA SPA-2100 (T.38)
         -> OpenPBX T38Gateway()
         -> CIRPACK Softswitch (SIP, no T.38) -> SS7
         -> PSTN FAX
         = ERROR (communication error + empty pages)

3.2. FAX -> SIPURA SPA-2100 (T.38)
         -> OpenPBX T38Gateway()
         -> Asterisk (SIP, no T.38) -> SS7
         -> PSTN FAX
         = ERROR (communication error + empty pages)

3.3. FAX -> Grandstream HT-286/486 (T.38)
         -> OpenPBX T38Gateway()
         -> CIRPACK Softswitch (SIP, no T.38) -> SS7
         -> PSTN FAX
         = ERROR (communication error + empty pages)

3.4. FAX -> Grandstream HT-286/486 (T.38)
         -> OpenPBX T38Gateway()
         -> Asterisk (SIP, no T.38) -> SS7
         -> PSTN FAX
         = ERROR (Grandstream will not ring ???)

3.5. FAX -> LINKSYS PAP2T (T.38)
         -> OpenPBX T38Gateway()
         -> CIRPACK Softswitch (SIP, no T.38) -> SS7
         -> PSTN FAX
         = ERROR (communication error + empty pages)

3.6. FAX -> LINKSYS PAP2T (T.38)
         -> OpenPBX T38Gateway()
         -> Asterisk (SIP, no T.38) -> SS7
         -> PSTN FAX
         = ERROR (communication error + empty pages)



4. T.38 -> T.38
---------------

4.1. FAX -> SIPURA SPA-2100 (T.38)
         -> OpenPBX T.38 pass-through
         -> SIPURA SPA-2100 (T.38) -> FAX
         = OK

4.2. FAX -> Grandstream HT-286/486 (T.38)
         -> OpenPBX T.38 pass-through
         -> Grandstream HT-286/486 (T.38)
         = ERROR (Grandstream will not ring ???)

4.3. FAX -> LINKSYS PAP2T (T.38)
         -> OpenPBX T.38 pass-through
         -> * (T.38)
         = ERROR



Versions
--------

OpenPBX SVN reversion 2544
spandsp-0.0.3pre27
LINKSYS PAP2T v5.1.3(LS)
SIPURA SPA-2100 v3.3.6
Grandstream HT-286 v1.0.7.19
Grandstream HT-486 v1.0.6.7



Summary
-------

1. T38Gateway is not working for SIP+T.38 -> PSTN, but is working fine
with conversion from PSTN -> SIP+T.38.

2. There is a bug in the new LINKSYS PAP2T firmware. There is no valid
T.38 support inside??? Could somebody send me an older (working)
firmware to me, please?

3. The Grandstream ATAs are sending T.38 fine. But they could only
receive incoming calls one times. Afterwards the are are unable to
receive incoming calls on OpenPBX. A reboot of the ATA will help.
If the ATAs are connected via an OpenSER environment they are working
fine in both directions.
