Hello if this is not allowed please ignore and inform me that it not allowed however I could think of no better place for this
I would like to know why there has not been more wide support of the V.38 or v.17 v.34 or the old style g.711 protocols for faxing over voip
Based on my understanding it is an difficult in an IP based environment for faxing to work reliably however based on my understanding V.38 was suppose to fix that however the research I have conducted in regards to the support of these protocols is that there not widely implimted and besides G.711 which was designed for voice that proviso is somewhat implored on a wider scale
However I understand faxing is archaic but in some fields it is necessary
Thanks Sam Please excuse spelling and grammar as this was typed on my phone
Hey Samual,
you might want to check out the voice ops mailing list, might be a bit more relevant over there.

Aside from voiceops, here's decade (or more?) old web page that I point
people to when they want to deal with Fax over VoIP:

That link shared right there is pretty much gold when it comes to faxing / modems over voip. Thats pretty much what you will get out of any discussion. We have successfully been able to get it to work but we also control the network a-z including the outside plant down to the house. What we have started to notice even when we are passing the calls down into the PSTN through the local interconnect tandems ect people down the line are converting it down to voip.
