Maybe that's what I'm missing. I was under the assumption that you had to use fax detect if you did faxing due to the echo cancellation, so fax detect could shut it off for fax calls.<br><br>So with dedicated fax lines, there's no need to use fax detect?<br>

You should not have to do this if you setup your contexts and<br>
extensions correctly. You don't need faxdetect if you are using<br>
dedicated fax DIDs. The last four digits MUST match what the telco is<br>
sending you in exten=XXXX.<br>
