Question about PAP-2T, SPA2102 and SPA3102

Post by wiggles »

Hey guys I could not find the answer anywhere
Is it possible to setup a fax on the voip line with one of these ATA's: PAP-2T, SPA2102 or SPA3102 or any other ATA?
Do I need 2 separate lines for this or can it be done on the same line?
Thanks

Fax machines do work on FPL, but I've noticed that at times you have to adjust the speed and/or line sensitivity of the fax machine to work properly, or you'll have problems with sending faxes properly. As far as receiving faxes goes, it does work, but the call-waiting can tend to terminate an incoming fax and subsequent attempts to resend them may end-up in your voicemail and then you'll need to manually log into your FPL account to view and print them.

grmoro is correct, it is however this way with almost all FOIP (Fax-Over-IP) unless you buy an IP Fax Machine. or the service is specifically designed to transmit data over IP, and convert to analog where it terminates to a fax machine.
