[hylafax-users] problems receiving with conexant modems



   Hello,

 I have setup hylafax for two lines, using external Conexant modems (FaxGetty 
sees them as MODEM CONEXANT V90/P2109-V90, at+fclass=? says 1,1.0,2,8,10 
(what do the last two mean??)), Slackware 9.0 on x86. Sending faxes works just 
fine, testing by sending from one to the other same, but a lot of incoming 
calls end up with ANSWER: Ring detected without successful handshake. The 
most annoying part is that faxes DO get in from several outside senders, but 
others have to retry 3-4 times or just give up.
 I have tried flow control rtscts/xonxoff, speed 19200/9600, class 1 and 2 - 
to no avail.
 The modems work just fine otherwise, I have been using them for dial-up 
connections with good transfer rates and they tolerate very well noisy lines. 
Also, if I plug in a regular fax machine in the same phone line all calls get 
in without errors.
 ANY hints received before my boss strangles me would be greatly appreciated 
:)

PS. (to the moderators): sorry for the offlist post, subscribing from the web 
page seems not to work.
