We really like the Hayes Acura V.90 Internal modem now made and
distributed by Zoom. Here is the config file we use that has worked
flawlessly on several machines sending faxes all around the U.S.

In all the tests we've done it works perfectly well for incoming data/fax
calls when hylafax is compiled to use mgetty. It might work with other
gettys but we have never tested with other than mgetty. If you recompile
Hylafax for mgetty or download our rpm which is "mgetty ready" be sure the
getty args are set to "-b -r %l" for proper data call operation.
