Re: [hylafax-users] Regarding ISDN & HylaFax

["Axel Trompeter" <axel.trompeter@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Sunil,

we are using AVM C4 ISDN Card and CAPI4HylaFAX
[download: ftp://ftp.avm.de/tools/capi4hylafax.linux/]

It works fine for us (and German EURO-ISDN), for sending
out 4000 Faxes per day.

Hylafax uses both channels on each ISDN Port (so called
A and B channell) - and treat them like two separate modems.

For the AVM C4 hat 4 ISDN Ports you get 8 channels.

So you will get "two modems with one ISDN card" - we also
tried "sedlbauer speedfax+ pci" and some analoge
"USR Sportster Faxmodems" but avm was the best solution
for sending out masses of faxes.

Hope I could help (and please forgive my bad English ;)
