I tried dual-boxing WoW last night for the first time. I'm completely addicted. It's a whole new set of techniques and tricks to learn and a huge amount of fun.

I've only got my dual warlocks to level 8, but I'm already planning a 5 char team and enlisting my extra PCs and laptops to help. I'm currently thinking I'll start with a SPriest and 4 'Locks, or Pally and 4 Priests. I've got more experience with priests than any other class, so I wanted to use them somehow.

Has anyone had much success 5-boxing on a single ADSL line? My speed is about 6 Mbps downstream and 1 Mbps upstream, and that's the fastest available where I live. A single instance of WoW gets around 97-150ms latency on my system normally. Viable? Or, should I wait for 5-boxing till I move to the area with faster connections?

Btw, thanks for this awesome resource on multi-boxing!
1 instance of WoW only uses about 1.5 kByte/s upload speed and 1.5kByte/s download speed. Any line with 128kbps up and 128kbps down should be able to run 5 WoW instances, as long as the connection itself doesn't lag (which is more provider/location-bound than speed-bound).
But in any case: If you doubt that something might not work(e.g. PC specs, internet connection, etc.), get some trial accounts and find out! :)
