Modem-less PC Faxing
I now have DSL and no longer have a dial-up modem. How do I send a fax without a modem?

Even if you keep your modem, switching to broadband Internet access can wreak havoc on PC-based faxing. I recommend using EFax, which lets you receive faxes over the Net without a modem. The free, basic EFax service assigns you a fax number and delivers your incoming faxes as e-mail attachments that you read using the company's proprietary, advertiser-supported software.

If you also need to send faxes without a modem, you should sign up for EFax Plus ($10 per month). The service provides a local phone number and allows you to fax any printable file via proprietary software and your e-mail system. But you're also charged 10 cents for every 30 seconds of transmission time--and the rate is even higher for international faxes.

The site is at www.eFax.com
