Hi,
I am trying to setup the fax on my pc (xp Home), I have a wirelesss network
using a router connected via ethernet cable to my host pc. When I run the
fax setup wizard it tells me that there is no modem installed, what do I
have to do to setup the fax?

TIA

You can't fax over Ethernet. You will need a dialup modem. If there is one
in your computer look in system properties and see if it shows it to be
working properly.

You could use an online Fax service; try www.ukfaxonline.co.uk; basically you
pay for faxes up front; and then send faxes via email, you can add
attachements and they end up at the fax machine.
