I never had much problem with the Sportster connecting, just that the
performance wasn't up to the levels of any other 14.4 modem I'd used,
including the Maestro 144FM. Also I consider the Sportster's command set to
be relatively obscure, though I'll no doubt hear lots of complaints about
that comment from the USR FRZ club here.
