	Does it matter that its directly into a Foundry router with a

	When the datacenter wants $50 a month JUST for the x-connect, and
then the telco wants $25 or so a month for something we might get 2 faxes

	I understand some of the gotchas, just wondered since I saw some
that have gotten it to work better, so wondering where to tweak. Maybe
ECM or something else I can do.
