<p>In order to save money I was thinking about changing from Comcast to Verizon DSL for a while to cut costs.  If I were to get the cheapest DSL, .5Mbps - 1Mbps, is that connection fast enough to play the game without lag?</p><p>With cable, I do not notice much if any lag.  If it will noticably hurt performance, I don't want to mess with it.</p><p>Thank you in advance for any responses</p>
