I can't recommend a specific adapter, but I can recommend against a couple of adapters when it comes to faxing. The Linksys 3102 analog-to-digital adapter doesn't jive well with fax machines. While it does work some times, there are quite a lot of fax machines that will refuse a fax sent from a fax machine connected via a 3102. I have also tried a grandstream adapter (I forget the model number) and had similar issues. I ended up just plugging an FXS module into a mediant 1000 gateway to get faxing working 100% of the time, and then running an RJ11 cable from the gateway into the RJ45 patch panel that had a network drop near the fax machine (then plugging in the fax machine's RJ11 cable into the network drop).

Anyone got any recommendations on a decent adaptor, I don't want to make a noob error like I did buying my Audiocodes gateway? Is there anything else I should be aware of before I try and set up this fax machine? Kenny Mitchell INEOS Refinery Grangemouth
