It's the same version you download, but you need a key to unlock full speed:

"LICENSE KEYS / REGISTRATION

 To enable your modem's full functionality (high-speed 56k data and FAX), a 
license registration key must be obtained from Linuxant and entered with 
"hsfconfig --license". 

Without a proper license key, the modem can only operate in FREE mode, limited 
to a maximum speed of 14.4Kbps (V.32bis) and the FAX functionality will not 
be available."
