More specifically, you can make it work using an ATA or a TDM400P

are talking about an office where lots of faxing is done, the lack of
reliability will likely be noticeable.
Hi
I don't see what seems to be a problem. I use the fax machine with
diguim 3 fxs 1fxo card and everything works fine. How this lack of
reliability can reveal itself?
I also can't say that I use my fax very often (maybe 20 times a day).
Cheers
Well, shocking as it might be, I could be wrong. I might be wrong
about that, though... <smirk>
Seriously, I can't say for sure. In the past there have been some
posts on the list suggesting that the TDM400P didn't play nicely with
fax traffic. It could be that this problem has since been resolved,
or maybe heavier fax traffic would reveal a problem, I dunno.
However, I do think it is fairly clear that using an ATA is a less
than ideal solution for any serious faxing, since the fax protocol
often doesn't play nicely with the tendency of VOIP to occasionally
lose packets. YMMV, though, so try it out and see how it works for you.
