I have an ATA attached to a fax machine that I’m not able to reliably send or receive T.38 faxes with. The trunks (Broadvox) are configured for T.38 and so is the ATA (Linksys SPA3102).
Here is the environment:
AsteriskNOW 1.7.1
Asterisk 1.6.2.11
FreePBX 2.8.1.3
Here is the layout of the network:
Broadvox --> WAN --> Firewall (NAT) --> ATA --> FAX Machine
I have verified by taking captures that the transmission switches over to T.38 but most attempts result in a hangup around 30 seconds into the call.
There are a variety of issues found in the Asterisk logs (included below) but in the research I’ve done I haven’t found any resolution.
Can anyone help point me in the right direction?
