Are you using a single credential-tuple with the provider? If the provider supports T.38 and if you can separate out fax lines, there is no need to stick asterisk between them and t38modem. Just have t38modem access the provider directly. Hylafax will handle the rest.

Re: [asterisk-users] IAXModem or T38Modem?
In my experience iaxmodem + Hylafax is very stable and work in my setups fine. But in these setups I either use ISDN uplinks or SIP trunks with low RTT and jitter (highspeed links to the service provider, no WAN links). Thus, T38 is in my setups not necessary. regards Klaus On 24.03.2014 06:41, Mike Diehl wrote: Hi all, I'm installing Hylafax on my Asterisk system.

Re: [asterisk-users] IAXModem or T38Modem?
I would not say happy, since there is no happiness in a world with T.38, but Level 3 supports T.38.Level 3 is wholesale only as far as I know. Vitelity has some fax service stuff too. -Original Message- From: asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Jeff LaCoursiere Sent: Tuesday, March 25, 2014 11:19 AM To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] IAXModem or T38Modem?

I don't mind running IAX if I have to. I want as much flexibility and stability as I can get. So, what are your recommendations? It depends on Your environment and Your asterisk version. If Your connection to the PSTN is via ISDN (eg. channel via DAHDI or CAPI), You should use IAXmodem. The fax is transferred on the audio layer and there is no need to translate it into T.38. If Your connection is via some VoIP Provider using T.38 or via a Mediagateway like BeroFix, You should use T38Modem. Newer versions of asterisk have additional features regarding T.38 (AFAIK). In this case there may be no need for any of the modems. HTH, Karsten -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Mike. We use IAXModem-1.2.0 built from source and packaged as an rpm using mock/rpmbuild together with Hylafax+-5.5.3 from epel. Since April 2013 this combination has been running two dedicated POTS lines through a TDM800-p8 on our Atom CentOS-6.3 based Asterisk-11.7.0 (current version) box without any reported difficulties (once I sorted out the upstart stanzas). As this is the only combination I have experience with it is the only one I can recommend. But it has proven very reliable so far as I am aware and I would be made aware pretty quickly if it was not. -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.
