Windows 7 fax and scan, and imagine wimax

censuspro · 2011-01-04 11:33:29

I'm trying to use windows fax and scan over wimax bb and telephone. I have it all set up but but when I dial out and the call connects the fax won't transmit. I've checked the fax numbers which are valid and I can hear the call connect and answer but the message won't transmit. Any suggestions?

I believe you need to have an analogue line for fax - your broadband will be digital.

There are online fax services you could use - probably a cost associated with them.

Couldn't be 100%. I have a vague recollection of trying to fax a couple of years ago and I think that was my problem. I don't recall getting a tone myself though.
