Same effect though.
Sorry for the delay, I've been away from my mail these days... I'm pretty sure about it, the Sportster Si 14400 is RPI. I think it's the only RPI modem they make, their other crap models are Winmodems. It came out before they "invented" the winmodem, when they needed some low-end model to compete with the "glue'n'go" manufacturers that were selling a lot of RPI modems, thanks to lack of customer information. The price difference from a Sportster to a Zoltrix was somewhat big (at least here in Brazil), and people had a hard time to follow my advice of not buying the RPI's... Thank god, RPI seems to be forgotten nowadays, only the winmodem is still here.
