Hmm I don't know what to think now. I just tested again, using a Cannon Multi-function laser fax/printer (G3) I got very few fake imput errors, and the fax went through almost perfect. (PSTN to *)....
Using a Brother MFC 3820CN that is attached via IAXy on private LAN, I get tons of fake imput's and a non-usable fax. Keeping in mind that the Brother MFC / IAXy used to work fine before i patched everything.... Is there any known issues using an IAXy with fax machines? I ordered a Sipura 2000 yesterday just to try out some other hardware so when that gets in I'll try it out dedicating a port to the fax machine. I might simply stop using * fax all together if I can make the Brother work well receiving through the Sipura.. I don't do a lot of faxing, but I would like to know I'm going to receive them when I do get one..
