Windows XP Professional has a fax facility built in. However, the fax wizard does not appear to provide an option for a permanent internet connection using ADSL. During set up it insists upon asking for a dial up number and requesting a modem. Is itpossible to use the permanent connection to send faxes? Further, can other computers connected peer to peer send faxes through the computer to which the ADSL modem is connected?

The only way to fax via your ADSL, or any internet connection is to use a faxing service.

You cannot call a fax machine from your ADSL connection.

From machine to machine, you could send the fax as a scanned image, or as the native file.

You can fax through internet.
Even you can fax to other countries through some software.
