WHICH MODEMS CAN BE USED WITH HYLAFAX
HylaFAX is intended to be used with
fax modems.
Fax modems are
not the same as data modems though most contemporary data modems also
include support for fax communication.
HylaFAX should work with any
Class 1, Class 2, or Class 2.0 fax modem.
You may find that other modems that claim to conform to the
Class 1, Class 2, and Class 2.0 specifications also work (but I make no
promises). Earlier revisions of firmware for the listed modems may
work, but once again no promises. Consult the
Modems section of this documentation
for known modem bugs and gotchas or follow the links in the table to
find information for a particular modem.
Wherever possible HylaFAX
works around known modem problems or restricts modem usage in
order to provide a functioning system.
The following is a list of modems that have been used with HylaFAX.
There are likely others modems that have been tried and/or are being
used with HylaFAX; this list shows only those that have
some form of support in the software or that have been publicly
reported as functional (though beware that what is functional
to one person may not be functional enough for you).
