[Asterisk-Users] Faxing Suggestions

I wrote a week or two ago about a problem I was having with a TDM400P
with 2 FXS.  The problem was reliable fax transfers.  There were often
slow or had communication failures during transmission.

Richard replied to my post and told me this is an ongoing problem that
might have a solution in the weeks to come.  However, I was wondering
if anyone had any alternate solutions for faxing with an actual fax
machine (not creating a fax server) that have worked well.

Basically my setup is a PRI coming in to my Asterisk box.  I have two
DID's that I would like to assign to my fax lines.  My requirement is
that I can use a standard fax machine to recv and send faxes.  It is a
pretty simple setup.

If you have an solutions that have worked well for you in the past, I
would love to hear them.  I currently have the DID's forwarded to a
single POTS line we had laying around.  This works but I can't use the
fax machines to receive individually.  Also if the folks working on
the TDM card missing frames issue need someone to run tests or
troubleshoot I am willing to do so.
