Scott,

This may not be the point of your message, but just a side note, I
believe that echocancel and echotraining are turned off when a fax is
detected automatically regardless of whether or not they are enabled.

Vonage and Primus are the only two I have found that provide local (area code 250) DID's, but neither support integration with asterisk.

As well, I couldn't figure out how to dynamically disable echocancel and echotraining on a line. My experience is that fax is less reliable with those enabled.
