[cisco-voip] Fax Machines having a very delayed response

[Lelio Fulgenzi]

I'll second the recommendation for SCCP and modem/fax passthrough. I think it's the easier thing to setup. Maybe not 100% effective (contact based alarm systems work better with MGCP I think) but the 99% of the time you'll be better off. 

Remember, though, it's not just the client side gateway you have to configure, i.e. VG224, but the PSTN facing gateway as well, e.g. 6608, 3845, etc.

Hi 

I meant VG224 ... we will use VG224 for simple Phone, Fax connectivity and some Hotline extensions, do you feel that MGCP will have some issues with that. Like the delayed FAX tone that we are experiencing now. 

Thanks

I have no idea what you're talking about when you say VGE. If you mean VG224 and you're using it as an MGCP gateway, I highly recommend you change it to be controlled via Skinny. Skinny-controlled VG224s are chock full of feature-filling goodness! 

[and you should then configure the box to use fax passthrough instead of relay unless you're insistent on using G.729....]
