I have pulled my hair out trying to get windows XP Pro's fax
capability to work with Vonage. It appears to be installed properly,
but wont send a complete fax. And the receive is spotty as well, in
fact in all my test runs I have yet to successfully send or receive
any fax completely.
I contacted vonage and they said they dont fully support "soft" fax
capabilities, and the recommended I get a stand alone fax machine and
they said that should work fine. The also said I can attemp to lower
the speed of the fax, and that might help.
It does seem ironic that Vonage, a company that is based on making the
computer work for you, does not support this. But I also have not
been able to locate anywhere how to lower the speeds of the internal
fax system.
Any advice would be great.
