Default Faxes and dial up connection


-----Original Message-----
Clarify your setup. Fax is on what computer?
What type of dial up access are you using?

Can you dial up when you set the Fax to manual answer?

You need to provide far more detailed information

about
your fax software
and how it is configured and your dial up ISP

connection
and how it is
configured.
Fax and dial up internet connections can both use

the
same analog phone
line, but obviously not at the same time.

On a dedicated phone line--Dial up connection and

remote
connection work if Fax isn't installed. But when I

set
up
fax and try a dial up connection, it will not

connect.
Can they exist on the same phone line? Help.


.Thanks for trying to help. On the Faxes--I used

the
wizard from windows xp professional--Went to

add/remove
windows components and followed the directions. Fax
worked fine.
The dial up is not through an ISP--it is just a

direct
dial up from home to my office computer over phone

lines,
then using remote desktop. The office computer acts

like
it is trying to answer a fax rather than my home

computer.
Also, I tried setting the fax to manuel and it won't

let
me answer that way.
If I disable fax, the dial up works fine. There is

some
type conflict in the actual answering.



.

Just read your answer again and realized I may have read
it wrong the first time. If the work computer is set to
manuel and I try to dial into it from home, I get a
message that the work computer did not answer...it's
still like it is a fax and did not get manually
answered. Thanks.

All of the set ups are explained in a previous post. The
fax is microsofts xp on the work computer and the dial up
is a dial up connection from home to work to use the work
computer with remote desktop.
