[asterisk-users] FAX thru TDM400p

[Bryan M. Johns]

Is your carrier delivering service via a TDM circuit?

It has been our experience that you will get far more reliable fax  
performance via the method you describe (analog device terminated to  
a port on a FXS line card) than attempting to use an ATA on the LAN.   
However, if your carrier is a SIP or IAX trunking provider, your  
reliability concerns are on the other side of your SIP switch.
