Maybe the new Sportster is an RPI (Rockwell Protocol Interface)
model, which requires special software to be used properly.
Without this software, you don't get error correction, data
compression, local flow control, or speed buffering.
Read the box carefully and make sure it doesn't say anything
about RPI or "special software".
