Anybody?]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p>So, I have all this farm work to do, and my Wifie and a best friend - the gals started a real</p>
<p>business - house flipping.</p>

<p>  It was a ton of work, but a lot of fun the other time, but now they are going pro.</p>
<p>I have to design a web site for them - we'll see how that goes. I bought an easy to use</p>
<p>software - Webeasy 10. Too many choices of color and format...</p>

<p> And, they want to be able to send out faxes. So, Hp chat guy told me I had to </p>
<p>install a second complete phone line to fax in or out. That sounded like baloney,</p>
<p>so I called ATT. That gal said that same thing.</p>
<p>  So, I figure that bs, so went to the ATT store to buy a phone line splitter and a dsl in line</p>
<p>filter. But they don't carry those- said to go to Walmart. So, I did. </p>
<p>  Turned out, that I couldn't get online with the filter, so I took it out. But, I couldn't fax.</p>
<p>So, I called em, and the guy says I have to have a second phone line installed to our home.</p>
<p>  And, I say "no thanks", and got on  ATT support via chat, instead of HP. He said to try plugging the fax</p>
<p>line directly into the wall, bypassing the splitter. FAXED FINE. Except, this room only has one</p>
<p>phone outlet.</p>
<p>  So, I can fax now. And an ATT tech support guy, said all I needed to do, is to junk that junk</p>
<p>Walmart ge cheapo splitter, and go buy one from a hardware store.</p>
<p>  So, I did, It is an RCA, but looks just like the other one. So, we were busy all day,</p>
<p>and I just tried it. It won't fax out, and it kicked my Wifie off the internet on the other computer.</p>
<p>  So, I guess if they really HAVE TO FAX, I upplug the internet line, and plug in the the fax phone line</p>
<p>and we can fax ! Then, I just have to unplug that, and plug the internet phone line in.</p>
<p>  and..... reboot both computers. And the phone plug is behind a series of bookcases, and I tried</p>
<p>to reach down to unplug it earlier today, and the books fell out and tried to break my foot.</p>

<p>   dammit. Stupid )(U&amp;_(*{_)+)U*_)*( "splitter").</p>
<p>  I guess it's a voice line or something that splitters don't do. Data lines, fine. dammit.</p>
<p>  So, I call ATT. That guy explains that all I need is a multi-ring function, small cost, from <br />ATT on our system to differentiate between a fax call, and a phone call with different rings,</p>
<p>and a fake working phone number designated as fax only.</p>
<p>  So, I call customer support, and they say they don't offer that service anymore, but the old</p>
<p>purchases of the multi-ring thing are still supported.</p>
<p>  DAMMIT.</p>
<p>  DAMMIT. I'm just going to have them go out and fax from a small print shop or something...</p>
<p>dammit. <img src="https://brownsboard.com/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f621.png?v=aee8435e68b" class="not-responsive emoji emoji-android emoji--rage" title=":rage:" alt="😡" /></p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/topic/38247/faxing-and-website-cysko-anybody</link><generator>RSS for Node</generator><lastBuildDate>Fri, 02 Oct 2026 14:02:05 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link href="https://brownsboard.com/topic/38247.rss" rel="self" type="application/rss+xml"/><pubDate>Sun, 11 Oct 2015 00:29:46 GMT</pubDate><ttl>60</ttl><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Faxing and Website - Cysko? Anybody? on Wed, 14 Oct 2015 01:34:35 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p>Interesting stuff. I finally just unplugged the ethernet/wireless modem connection from</p>
<p>the phone jack on the wall, and bought a long 25' phone cord, plugged it into</p>
<p>the wall jack and straight to the back of the printer, and...</p>

<p>I faxed to our dr.s office again, and it worked. I believe you have to have a second line to receive</p>
<p>em, but I don't see that as a problem.</p>

<p>Then, I faxed the important fax to Nevada, and it wouldn't work. Kept saying I needed to include the </p>
<p>access code. I'm like, wtf is an "access code". ??? I including the "1" for long distance, but it wouldn't take it.</p>
<p>So, I set the fax software up to auto-include the "1" for long distance... still wouldn't work.</p>
<p>  So, I call ATT tech support again, same guy, and he says he wishes he could help me know</p>
<p>why the splitter won't allow the printer to fax.... and I tell him about the annoying refusal of the access code ("1").</p>

<p>   He thinks about it and says "eh... you all use your home phone only for the internet, right?" </p>
<p>I say "yeah".....</p>
<p>  and he asks if we have our long distance capability disabled.</p>

<p>  "dammit. that's what it is, alright. I remember that..."</p>

<p>So, then  I faxed this 20 page fax to Nevada, and all was well.</p>
<p>Except for the two phone line splitters. They are in great danger</p>
<p>of me taking them out to the field, and having me run over them several</p>
<p> times with the tractor and disc.......</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/538211</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/538211</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[calfoxwc]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 14 Oct 2015 01:34:35 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Faxing and Website - Cysko?

<p>Yeah, my parents have to have Hughes net(its horrible) since they moved to southern ohio.</p>

<p>Cal I can yell at the HP people I work with for ya(he is an a$$ anyways) also you may want to look into something like this for the future-  <a href="http://www.howtogeek.com/168841/how-to-send-and-receive-faxes-online-without-a-fax-machine-or-phone-line/" rel="external nofollow">http://www.howtogeek.com/168841/how-to-send-and-receive-faxes-online-without-a-fax-machine-or-phone-line/</a> since depending on usage fax machines usually need to take up a second line. </p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/538066</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/538066</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[sadbrownsfan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 13 Oct 2015 13:43:43 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Faxing and Website - Cysko?

<p>the computer room.</p>

<p>I also heard from HP tech that we have to call ATT and have them cancel the voice mail function, and </p>
<p>maybe turn off the phone answering machine in the other room.</p>

<p>   dammit. I will figure it out though. At this point, it's easier to disc our fields, and cut up and split</p>
<p>42 trees over at the neighbor's farm along the creek/ditch.</p>

<p>Still have to dig up two more 10 yd long rows of potatoes. and plant hay, and winter wheat and groundcover...</p>
<p>and clean and repack the barn with equipment for winter...</p>

<p>and clean the garage so I can finally start parking in it again. .......dammit.</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/537733</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/537733</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[calfoxwc]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 12 Oct 2015 05:13:40 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Faxing and Website - Cysko?

You generally need one for telephone  operations (like an alarm system) for instance on a phone line that uses dsl. You'll put it between the fax machine and the jack.</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/537276</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/537276</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[The Cysko Kid]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 11 Oct 2015 02:49:39 GMT</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
