&gt; Ok<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; will sending a fax over it work... The answer is yes it will work..<br>
&gt; will it work reliably, no<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Faxing just needs to die already...<br>
&gt; The problem you have here with Faxing over G711 (PCMU or PCMA) is that<br>
&gt; faxing uses a modem to encode a digital signal into an analog carrier meant<br>
&gt; for a circuit switch voice network with a constant amount of delay and<br>
&gt; guaranteed delivery of the entire analog stream<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; VoIP by definition is Voice Over Internet Protocol... IP is a packet<br>
&gt; switched network, where you can no guarantee a constant amount delay<br>
&gt; (latency) ... Not to mention it is not common to see a udp packet or 2<br>
&gt; missing along the way.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Where as 1 20ms packet may not seem like much to you, that’s roughtly<br>
&gt; equivalent to 575bytes of data in the fax and it will screw up the fax<br>
&gt; either causing a corruption of the data, or a drop in the analog modem<br>
&gt; carrier which requires a retrain...<br>

&gt; Reliability is a different issue. I am just wondering whether mod_dingaling<br>
&gt; supports fax via GV. because someone proved sending fax via GV from fax<br>

&gt; And relativity comes into play too.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Also you do need to realize that the packets sent via UDP isn&#39;t<br>
&gt; guaranteed to be in order as the fax machine expects the data to be<br>
&gt; sent in order, not out of order. That&#39;s the beauty of packet switched<br>
&gt; networks.<br>
