- OK for all those who are wondering if sportster winmodem can download
- faster than the sportster 28800 now with 33600. Having tried both back
- to back in my system the answer is no!!! File transfer with winmodem
- was dropped gradually to 1.1/sec and sportster dropped gradually to
- 1.8/sec with the same file saved to different directories. Why the
- speed drops so much' say from 3.8 to 1.8/sec I have no idea. Save
- yourself the trouble and pay the extra $50 for sportster 28800. By the
- way, their web page is very poor.
