Broadband line & fax

V1llianous · 2006-06-29 09:25:44

Hi, A friend of mine has a broadband enabled line and connection with Eircom. She wants to get a fax machine, can this work over the same line or does she need to get a second line in. TIA, V

A fax machine uses your standard PSTN.
Basically its a phone. And since DSL allows you to use the phone at the same time the answer is yes.

Make sure the Fax has a microfilter attached too!

Hi D,

Thanks for that.

Just one presumption I would like clarification on I presume that if I use a multifunction printer with fax and attach a microfilter on it it would work fine.

TIA

Yes. I'm using a Dell all-in-one on a BB line with filter and it's fine.
