Re: HylaFAX 4.0pl1: Use multiple modems for sending alpha-pages?



Digi Realport Drivers look just like actual LOCAL terminal ports.  With
full control over the signals.  Now I would recommend that the faxmodems
be class 2 at least because of network issues.  When I had HylaFAX working
here I used realport drivers, and both 14.4 Sportsters, and Telebit
Worldblazer modems.
