Hello - Can someone please advise how can I send a fax using obi200 without a fax machine? I have phonepower as my phone service provider. I'm using a hp laptop with windows 8, 64-bit os and amd a6-4400m processor. Thank you!

(Assuming your PC does not have a modem)

Short answer - you cannot.

Longer answer.  Look for an internet service which will allow you to send send directly from your PC to a fax machine. The OBi200 (or any other OBi ATA) plays no part.

thanks for your responses. i thought the obihai fax t.38 does anything like being able to send a fax without a fax machine.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T.38 has a reasonably good description without being overly technical.
