2x Linksys SPA3102 ("spaone" & "spatwo")
---Goal
To be able to fax in/out by "extending" the POTS line across the LAN like so: FaxLine>spaone>LAN>spatwo>Fax
I've searched online and found the following config which I've used...
***************************************************************
On the SPA3102 attached to the PSTN line.
PSTN Line Tab
Line Enable: YES
NAT Mapping Enable: yes or no depending on the router used
NAT Keep Alive Enable: yes or no depending on the router used
Register: No
Make Call Without Reg: Yes
Ans Call Without Reg: Yes
UserID: spaone
VoIP-To-PSTN Gateway Enable: yes
VoIP Caller Auth Method: none
VoIP Default DP: 2

PSTN Caller Auth Method: none
PSTN Ring Thru Line 1: no
PSTN Caller Default DP: 2
Dial Plan 2: (S0<:spatwo@ipaddress:5060>)
The dial plan will automatically dial the distant SPA3102 Line 1 when the PSTN-to-VoIP gateway answers the call
Where spatwo is the userid on the Line1 tab of the distant SPA3102 (spatwo)
Where ipaddress is the ip address of the distant SPA3102
Where 5060 is the sip port number of the Line 1 tab on the distant SPA3102
VoIP Answer Delay: 0
PSTN Answer Delay: 2
Where 2 seconds is long enough to receive an incoming caller id on the pstn line (if you care about it)
Line-In-Use Voltage: 30
Where 30 is about half way between the on-hook and off-hook voltage of your pstn line (polarity disregarded)
Line 1 Tab

I've tried hooking both spa's on the LAN then tried both on WAN w/o success (and changing the IP under the LAN and WAN tabs respectively). I assumed the fax line would be in "line" of spaone, the LANport attached to the LAN (WANport unused). On spatwo, LANport attached to LAN, and the Fax machine attached to "phone".
On the phone port of spatwo I just get a busy signal (same tone I get when I have nothing plugged into lan or wan on spatwo). Afaict there's no communication between the two SPA units.
I'm assuming there's missing information in the config.
The LAN port on these is a passthrough so that you can share a PC network drop or other device with the SAP unit. If these are going to talk your network will need to be on the WAN side regardless of where you place them on the network topology.
Not sure about the rest of your configuration --
