How do I use ADSL to send fax with a computer that has 56k modem?
I used to use my 56k modem to send fax with dial up internet. I am now using ADSL. I installed fax using windows xp. When I tried sending a fax, it comes up in the fax console Outbox but does not go through (does not appear in the Sentbox).
When I click the Receive now icon I get this message "There are no fax devices. Please install a modem that supports fax operations".

You can’t use ADSL to send faxes. I’m not sure why since getting ADSL it’s not recognizing your 56k modem. Just try reconfiguring the fax software to point to your dial-up modem.
you should have an ADSL filter in your telephone line with two outputs one should be labeled as ADSL and the other one as phone, your 56K modem should be plugged to the phone port and you’ll be able to send faxes.
You don’t need the adsl modem to send a fax you just need the telephone line and the filter to avoid interference with the ADSL signal.
