I am currently in search for a VoIP provider as SBC is the only land
line solution in my area and I no longer like the way they treat their
customers.

I'm leaning tward Vonage, but my question is, does any of the VoIP
providers have issues when FAXing over the primary line? I know Vonage
can add a dedicated FAX line for $9.99, but I don't do a lot of FAXing
(maybe once a month). Having a second line would be a waste.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you!

ATT CallVantage says to check with them before using a FAX as only
certain types are supported.

Faxing is supported over the primary line. The dedicated fax line is so you
have a dedicated fax number.

I have setup a fax-service at www.k7.net for free. Only drawback is that
it requeires a call to it at least every 4 weeks - I've setup my server to
automatically send a fax every 3 weeks to ensure that ;-)
