Suppose the SIM card is inserted, the PIN entered or not requested, an antenna
connected and 2N
® EasyRoute logged in to a GSM network – the UMTS/GSM network
indicator is flashing and, having seized the line, you hear the dialtone. Suppose the
VoIP account is configured and the gateway is logged in to a T.38 fax transmission
supporting VoIP provider.
Warning
Before programming fax transmission, make sure that:
 Your VoIP account is set and registered properly.
 The numbers to which you send fax messages are routed to the SIP line.
 Your VoIP provider supports the T.38 protocol.
Remember that 2N ® EasyRoute is (technically) incapable of sending a standard
analogue fax message to a GSM network. All outgoing FAX calls have to be routed to
the VoIP network. Therefore, make sure that your VoIP account is configured properly.
The routing table may not include prefix collisions that might route FAX calls to GSM.
If you still want to send a FAX message to a number whose calls are routed to a GSM
network, create a new routing table row for the number and enter a specific prefix or
a ‘#’ character at its end.

switched into the T.38 mode and the FAX transmission starts. During
