The Sportster I once owned was very fast with Win98-PCs, but my Mac and my ISPs software would never agree -- it just didnt't work, so I sold this one. I've never tested it with Linux though. From my experience I can recommend external Diamond and Lasat modems; both have Rockwell chipsets and perform very well (here), and are cheaper than Elsas. A. B. [andre.berger@topmail.de]
