Hi Keith, This is a similar setup to what we have.
4 incoming lines into a 4 port FXO home brew asterisk box. 1 incoming fax line going to a PCI fax modem hooked up to HylaFax which then is configured to email a PDF of the completed fax to us. I have however setup Asterisk to listen for a fax on a line and it is not very difficult. So you could do with just the Asterisk solution if you want, just get a 4 port FXO and use 3 for phone, 1 for fax. -Bill Ensley www.bearprinting.com On 9/13/2011 11:11 AM, Keith Lofstrom wrote: > My wife's new office will have 3 incoming PSTN voice lines and a > fax line, terminating on a home-brew Asterisk PBX.
