I've tried everything. EVERYTHING. Almost every combination of maxdatagram 
sizes, error correction modes, hacking app_fax.c to limit the baudrate to 
9600... nothing. Every single time I get rates like 2400, 4800 or if I'm very 
lucky, 7200.

In ALL cases, *every single time*, FFA negotiated the connection at 9600bps and 
the fax was received cleanly.

It's clear to me that the provider should not be blamed on this case. I tried 
using a Linksys SPA8000 and faxes are also received perfectly. Something, 
either in Asterisk, SpanDSP or app_fax is just not right.

For now I'll have to stick with FFA for my company and my customers. They will 
not be happy to know that in order to transmit or receive more than one fax 
simultaneously they will need a US$40 license, but it's still better than 
quadrupling the phone bills because for some unknown reason the baudrate is 4 
times slower than it should be.

I'm still willing to solve this. I really want to get app_fax working as 
intended. I'm sure this is on the best interests of the community as well. 
Unfortunely I don't have the knowledge or skills on faxing protocols, DSP and C 
development or else I would have solved this myself. But I'm doing my part on 
this by providing all necessary info and running every single test I'm asked to.

IMHO it would be a shame if we need to rely on a commercial piece of software 
because the open source equivalent is 4 times slower on some cases. For me it 
defies the very reason of Asterisk's existence: an open source alternative on a 
market flooded with proprietary solutions.
