Changing that changes the speed for ALL faxes, not just the one destination. Think about it, you are changing a system setting not a address book setting.
I could go on and on about VOIP, but I won't here.
Turning off ECM does help some in some cases just as putting tape over your Check Engine light helps. It just masks the issue. ECM is Error Correction Mode, so it corrects errors in the transmission. After too many errors, typically 5% or something like that, it deems the line quality to be to poor and hangs up to try again later. Turning off ECM is just allowing all of the errors to go through and not to attempt to correct them, so basically ignore the errors. Yeah, that's a great fix!
I just love how the telcoms tell you that you need to adjust your baud rate and disable ECM like this is some great technical fix. It's basically saying slow down the machine to 1980 standards and accept all errors because the reliability and quality of our transmissions suxs.
Opps, I just did a bit. Sorry.
