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.
