Hi, I am trying to fix a Asterisk setup with buggy (POTS) Fax machines. The setup consists of the following components:
- A Digium TE121 for connectiong to E1 ISDN - Debian box with Asterisk 1.4 - Grandstream GXW-4008 SIP ATA to which the Fax machines connect I am aware of the problems with this type of ISDN <-> Asterisk <-> SIP ATA <-> Fax machine installations, e.G. different "clock source" of ISDN and the ATA, ethernet timing issues, etc. So it's no suprise that i encounter the usual problems: No reliable transmission of faxes, errors and aborts with multiple page faxes, ... Unfortunately the installtion is allready completed and purchasing new hardware is not an option. Thus i have come up with the following idea und need some small pointer if this is even possible: remote <=whatever=> PSTN <=ISDN=> Digium <--> Asterisk <--> t38modem <=Ethernet=> Grandstream <=POTS=> local FAX E1 TE121 1.4 SIP GXW-4008 FAX machine t38 Is it possible to decouple the internal Fax communication from ISDN using t38modem or as an alternative "Fax For Asterisk", perhaps in conjunction with HylaFAX? I was unable to find any current information about theese subjects on the www. Most postings/articles are 4-6 years old and state that it's impossible, but this was way before t38modem and "Fax for Asterisk". I would be really grateful if anybody could come up with some current information, howtows, etc. Many thanks in advance Daniel Leese -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
