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!
I five-box just fine with a latency of 250-330ms most of the time. Sometimes I get lucky and it drops as low as 150-170, but otherwise I spend most of my time hovering on yellow.

However, I never PvP with my group, just PvE. And I get a notable ~1 second lag between my computers when I press a key (I run one account on one computer and four accounts on the other, linked via keyclone). For PvE this is not so bad, I assume that for PvP a one second targeting lag could be very annoying. I can't help with the connection speed issue, as I run a boosted cable line, but I don't see why your setup (6Mb/1Mb DSL) would have any problems at all. Your line is 4x T1 speeds on download and about 70% of T1 speeds on upload, and that's pretty darn good.

So enjoy! Multiboxing five casters can be extremely fun, especially when you are nuking down mobs before they get within 10 yards of your group.
