[hylafax-users] multitech ISIModem card - 45 sec delay on Initializing server

["Paul Walsh" <paul@walshsimmons.co.uk>]

I am using the standard lucent-mt-2 config with an ISIHI-2S modem ISA card. The problem is a 40+ second delay between sending faxes at the initializing server stage and in fact the whole cycle from 1 fax to the next seems 'sticky' and slow. I also have 2 ext. ZDX modems on standard serial ports on a diferent machine which get through faxes almost twice as fast and only stay at the initialising server stage for 2 or 3 seconds.

 

I am running faxgetty on each device but not on the server with ext. modems- could this be slowing things down?

 

Log file output (what little there is):
