[asterisk-users] Faxing success rate on PRI

[benoit]

Here is my current setup:

    E1 => [Asterisk with TE220p] => IAX Trunk (routed network) => 
[Asterisk with TDM800p] => Fax/Copy Machine

This seems to work fine, a few failed Fax or very slow sending/process 
sometimes but no complaining
users, so this must be ok :)

My previous try was:

    E1 => [Asterisk with TE220p] => IAX peer (same network) => HylaFax 
machine with IAXmodem

While the users did like the facility of receiving PDF documents, we had 
many calls for people unable
to send Fax to us, so i kinda ditched to solution. I've updated the 
setup to use IAXmodem/Hylafax on
the first asterisk machine but until now i haven't tested it.
