Default Neat info about Vonage and Faxing
I don't know if this is common knowledge or not, but I just got off the phone with the Vonage girl and she said that if I want to fax out or receive a fax, to just plug in my fax to my phone line I use for the phone, then plug my phone back in when I am done, and there is no charge for faxing services and your phone number will be your fax number too.

Downfall - You have to know when you are getting a fax ahead of time
Positive - It's free!

Thank you Ronni for posting this. I knew you could do this with a traditional phone line. I believe that there is a phone line split were you can install the split in the one phone jack and then it has two phone jacks were you can but one to your fax but all on the same line. You could proably go to Office Depot or Max and ask.

Hi Ronni,

Usually there are two lines on the fax machine. One for "Line" the other for "Phone". Look on the back of your fax machine and see if you have two holes for line and phone. Plug your Vonage into the "Line" then your telephone into the "Phone" outlet.

That is how I have my Vonage setup

Andrea~

I have been thinking about whether or not to get a fax#, but this way seems a lot simplier. Thanks!

I use a fax program on one of my computers and plug a phone line directly from my computer to the Vonage router input. That works nicely too.
