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).
