[asterisk-users] Free Fax for asterisk

[Markus Weiler]

Hi,
it was was my fault, there is no retry ... sorry to bother you.

@David:
I wasn`t very conviced about Spandsp, after trying several versions it 
worked, but not well.
We are sending faxes via SIP. When sending faxes from our 1.6 Asterisk 
to our 1.4 Asterisk 50%+ Faxes failed.
T.38 worked once then stopped I never found the right 
Asterisk-App_fax-Spandsp-dialplan setup again.
I event patched the app_fax, which contained errors, just to get it working.
Although I have to admit I installed it on our other Asterisk 
1.4.17-BRIstuffed (Spandsp 0.0.4-test6) and it works just fine.

I just tried Digiums solution to test if it´s better and it is, all the 
testfaxes went through.
T.38 worked instantly.
Configuration was pretty easy and well documented.
I think $50 per channel is not too much money either, just the 
support...well there is none.

hope i could help

Markus
