Re: [hylafax-users] Problem with AVM card



Micahel,

I have a AVM card in my system right now as I intend to be running a
toll free number that does voice fax and data calls.

From my research AVM PCI cards can do the job but I'm not sure if they
can do densities over 2 lines per PC unless you get some active ISDN
hardware that supports CAPI in linux.

In Germany I presume still the standard is such ISDN is in the home as
well as for business trunk lines. (I worked for a German software
company facilitating option brokering software www.rtsgroup.net during
september 9 / 2001 - www.rtsgroup.net who's primary customer is
DeucheBank who was also invovled in insider trading on UA put options)

Through CAPI avm Pci v2 cards (passive) can do fax reception, and
possibly V.34 though the jury is till out on weather that is hardware
assisted. Remember that some commercial people troll the mailing lists
for on a daily basis looking for leads :)

If you use the fritz official CAPI drivers now packed in Suse 10.1 you
may have trouble with direct indial numbers for voice / fax / data and
you have to use the MSN of the card to pick up the call.

I'll update the list in the near future of my success with a Fritz!
pci card in conjuction with capi4hylafax and Asterisk capi_channel.
Misdn's capi layer should also be investigated too! There are just so
many possibilities of answering faxes through ISDN if you involve
asterisk too. Lee's IAX modem can come in there for 14.4k fax
reception as a fallback.

Cheers

Luke

Hi Max,

I think most HylaFAX users would stay away from USR modems..... however, I
would agree completely with your advice regarding Win/Lin Modems.

USR modems used to be THE standard in mailbox times....I know they have some

glitches with faxes, but my 56k message modem works fine.

Make sure you dont buy a 'Winmodem'

..and you take a look at
