Nothing great, but it gets the job done.

The real question is... how much do you need to 5box without lag (from your end, obviously cant stop server lag) and stay connected to vent, say.

well, I did mine and it had a pop up and said,
"Try again b!tch when you get a real connection".....

I should try that from home. I'm on shaw.ca, on their #3 connection speed service (they have four, hi-speed lite, hi-speed, hi-speed turbo, and hi-speed insane which costs an insane amount/month)

http://www.dslreports.com/speedtest has good tests closer to you (I use the flash ones) for better ping times
