Well i download music off the net at 50kbps. Is that good enough. When i play games online on my pc i dont or lag once in a while. So is my connection good enough? btw it's DSL Speed: 100.0 (thats what it says when i click on it). I plan on playing motorstorm, cod4 and warhawk online when i get my ps3.

I'd say it's good enough. You might lag from time to time but overall OK. As a reference mine is 5689kbps DL and 492 upload. :)

Rule of Thumb: if you have to ask its probably not good enough, Kinda of like if you have to ask how much it costs you can't afford it.

The thing about DSL is that when you connect to play, when other people get online at your house, even if they are just browsing around the net, but especially if they're gaming also - you'll feel the hit very easily and start to get connection problems. For the most part though, your connection should work just fine.

I have around 1000 and 100 and i lag in 30% of my CoD games and lagging in CoD is really bad, if you have less than two bars for your connection strength (on the in match score board) you probably wont be able to kill many people so try a different match

Mine is 1438 download, 350 upload and lags pretty bad when playing COD4 and can't play Resistance. I think even if you have a good connection what effects the most is the distance between the players. If they are all in the same country and using a moderate connection they won't have any lag
