BUT, even if fax is detected on an IAX2 channel, the only reason would be to change dialplan logic accordingly correct? There is no T.38 equivalent within IAX2, which means the OP will be handling faxes over a clear VoIP channel.

Re: [asterisk-users] Detecting Fax Tones over IAX2
Sorry I hit send by mistake (touchscreens, sigh) I've had good success with faxing over voip, I'm not expecting it to be perfect, and my provider (voip.Ms) is planning on t.38, but I'm looking for an interm solution. Audio faxing has worked every attempt both sending receiving (5 and 5). Should I update to asterisk 10 for this? Thanks, Cody On May 24, 2012 11:00 AM, Kevin P.

Why not just get an extra inbound number from your provider, and use that for your faxes? Saves a lot of fart-arsing around. (Providers are now beginning to issue numbers beginning with a 0, thus requiring the STD code to be dialled even for a call within the same town. Would be ideal for a fax line.) -- AJS Answers come *after* questions. -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

I had considered this, however, I was trying not to buy another DID. It may end up being the best solution.
