A: If you currently use your phone line for occasional faxes, you may utilize a VoIP connection in exactly the same way. With Vonage, you can simply connect your VoIP phone line to your fax machine as you would with a standard landline phone. Note that as a regular phone line, if you use the line to send or receive a fax, you can not make voice calls simultaneously. Many services recommend you get a second dedicated fax line, if you plan to leave your fax machine connected.
Some VoIP companies also offer fax capabilities on the Internet. One of our most popular options, Phone.com offers faxing over the Web directly from your Internet browser. Check out our full review of Phone.com for how 10% discount for six months Home / Residential Phone Service Over society.
