Wonder if anyone could tell me what the minimum connection speed you need is to play online poker - say PS and FTP at the same time with PaHUD and PT Running and browsing 2+2 at the same time? (I currently have 5 Mbps) With the new FCC regulatin opening up the market to competition most everywhere in the US I have a few alternatives now and was wondering what the slowest speed is that will work? The options offered by AT&T are 768 Kbps / 1.5 Mbps /3.0 Mbps / 6.0 Nbps. THanks |

768kbps is more than enough for poker. You probably won't be very happy with your file download speeds, though.

Thank you.
Would having Instant Messaging as well as PA + PT running make a difference? (not really sure how much if any PT and Pahud are a drag on the Internet speed, but have heard IM takes a decent chunk....) |

Poker and instant messaging make minimal traffic.. you could easily do both on an old modem with 4kbps.. so yes 768kbps is loads of room.

I seriously doubt it would be wise to try and play poker on an old-modem. Minimum DSL imo.
