Your best bet is to just not use fax machines. They are outdated technology. With email there is little reason to use fax machines anymore. But for some reason people just feel the need to hang on to them.

A good solutions is to get a fax machine that supports fax to email. We have a Brother 8440D, that you can type in a fax number or a email address and hit send, works the same both ways. Only with the email it attaches a tiff image to an email. You can also set up an email box that the fax machine will check and download and print "faxes" from. And if you must have a fax number, you can sign up for a fax to email phone number for a provider like efax.com.

Hi All,

I want to configure fax with Asterisk and I found that we can do this reliably using G711 codec only. Currently my provider is supporting G729 and G711.
During the call initiation the call starts with G729 (1'st priority) and


Faxing via VoIP is not reliable period. You're only gonna waste time. If you really insist on trying, buy a second DID and register that one with g711 only.
