ISDN is a circuit-switched telephone network system, it's NOT the same as fiber....doesn't work the same nor use the same protocols. I've talked to engineers at AT&T and Verizon, trying to find a way around the problem, and there isn't one. So, what I do is scan anything that has to be FAXed and file attach it. Actually, it's better because the quality of the image rec'd is, of course, so much better than a FAX.
One way or another, it has to connect to the existing world wide phone system. The two digital methods a via the TDM hierarchy (ISDN, T1 etc.) or voice over IP. No matter how the connection gets to the home or office, one of those two methods is used. There are many devices capable of running FAX over ISDN and you can also get a standard POTS phone jack, when using VoIP. I'd like to know what excuses those companies gave. In my home, I have VoIP, which connect over coax & fibre back to the ISP. The terminal I was provided with supports two POTS connections, which you can plug any analog device into. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
