[CUBE] Internal Fax Modem + DSL In Parallel ?

[Thubten Kunga]

I'm not sure you can be hooked to the internet with your ethernet DSL 
connection and still have the analog phone modem also available for 
sending and receiving faxes. The way I interpret the current Mac 
communications scheme is ONE WAY (analog fax modem) of THE OTHER WAY 
(digital ethernet) all Internet centric. You bring up an excellent 
deficiency in that scheme. I see a need for multiple communications 
paths, both analog (fax modem) and digital (ethernet 
DSL/Cable/Satellite) to accomplish what you want to do Francine. I may 
be mistaken.

Can anyone else please confirm that the current communications 
architecture is an either/or type deal rather than the needed parallel 
scheme? Or is there a way to operate both in parallel that Francine and 
I are unaware of?

And what software are you trying to make work for faxing Francine? Have 
you asked their technical support people about your situation yet?
