Hi.

Im thinking of buying an xbox 360. I want it to mainly play fifa 11 on it. However, I understand you can play it online which does appeal to me. The problem I may have is that I have o2 mobile broadband usb pen and it provides a, well, somewhat limited speed.

After just checking my connection with speedtest.net, it says my ping is 86ms, download ~2Mbps, upload ~0.7Mbps. However, this is at 00:21 at night so I'm assuming the contention is non-existent so during the day it could be less.

I am wondering if this connection would be enough to play fifa 11 online smoothly?

Cheers

Dan
