I am having some problems faxing with my FOIP(?) line. According to the techs, it is because my Lexmark X125's baud rate is too high. Problem is, I can't change it!

1-2 page faxes usually go through (after a couple of tries). Big a$$ ones don't get past the first page. The VOIP adapter settings for the fax line are: highest quality - 90K and g7111.

If I can't get this fixed somehow, I will need to buy a fax machine or another AIO that allows me to set the baud rate lower (I'm told 9600 would be ideal).

Any help and recommendations on which AIO to get would be appreciated. Being an avid RFD'er, low price/high value is a must! If I can't get an AIO, I'll settle for a good but cheap fax.

TIA

Vonage forums showed some success switching cables to 1-pair tel cables but I'm not sure if it could work for you. Not sure how it helps but here's the discussion:

Thanks - at least the forum confirmed that my AIO fax machine is not the culprit! Now to figure out what 1-pair tel cables are and where to get them :)
