Will this wireless phone jack work with making and receiving faxes?

I have no phone jack in the computer room and rather than run a 50 foot line to the fax every time I need it, I bought this twice. It works for a few weeks and then...nothing. Both times.

I have never tried faxing with magic jack plus so I am not sure. But there is Nettalk that is similar to magic jack and it's fax friendly.

For FAX you need the phone wire. Only computer printing and scanning works (sometimes ...) wireless .... but ... don't buy it ... it's just waste of money and time. Today I had to restart this printer twice (shut down ... unplug (!!!) ... wait 1 minute ... replug ... restart ... wait 10 minutes ...).

My phone - land line- comes through straight talk wireless. No connection to telephone lines. Does anyone know if this printer will send faxes?

I am not sure, I can not use my fax machine with my printer so I have not tried to use it this way, But this works just fine as my home phone and phone sets my have not had any problems with this device since I purchased it and I am totally satisfied and t-mobile sent me a $20.00 credit to my account. so i basically got it free.

yes but it all depends on your software and its compatibility with StartTech USB56KEM3 external fax modem

yes but it will interrupt the fax transmission. I'm not sure how you are using the modem. It connects to the computer and then the wall. The fax and/or phone are connected via a splitter from the wall jack. But regardless it will disconnect when a fax or a call comes in.

Not being familiar with vonage configurations, but it should, I've done it for fax machines in the past.

Yes. But you will need to have a four color phone cord wire. It only takes two for each line. The phone line can be a two color wire but the fax (is vise versa) will need to be a four color wire. It will be a 50-50 chance you get them right the first time you plug them in. Good luck.

The product description says: "Great for sharing a printer, scanner, or other USB device between two computers (one computer has access at a time)." I'm guessing you select the printer function at the printer. Receiving and sending faxes is a separate function that uses the phone line. So, it's likely that you'd send the fax page just completed to the printer via the switch, then fax it using the printer-to-phoneline connection. If you control all the printer functions from you computer, chances are the switch will work. At $14.99 a pop, it's worth giving it a try.

No. This accepts phone connectors only, it separates the Internet signal from the voice/ fax signal.I hope this helps.

Hi Stella, Short answer is "Yes". You will need to purchase a phone jack "Y" connector and enough phone wire to get to your fax machine from the base. The closer the better! Unplug the phone wire going to the Panasonic Base. Plug that phone wire into one of the "Y" inputs. Plug the "Y" connector back into the Panasonic Base. Use the purchased phone wire to come from the other "Y" input into your fax machine and you're good to go. No phone calls while you're using the fax.Steve

Thanks to everyone for the help on this. I am going to try the suggestions and see if that works. I'd really like to be able to do an outbound fax anytime and receive a fax by pressing the receive button.I fear that the fax picking up in the middle of the call may be due to using VOIP with Vonage as it will occasionally make a faxish noixe when a second call comes in. Will report back the results -- ping me on this list by adding a reply if I don't (i get an email on each reply).

Yes. When not in use it goes into a power saving mode but will receive faxes automatically.

Your comment is inaccurate. Although it is not possible to use this phone with a fax machine, it is very possible to use VOIP service to send and receive faxes. There are lots of VOIP compatible fax machines on the market, just not yet to consumers, mostly the small to large business market.

I have not connected a fax to any of my lines, but it should work fine as long as your internet connection is solid to maintain the phone connection. As far as a router is concerned, that depends on the router. It needs to support the protocols required by the telephone adapter.

Hi King'sDaughter,Yes, indeed. Just plug into your USB port.You also have to install the software that comes with it.I receive faxes this way; it is always on.You can also send faxes.Phil
