most if not all game servers are rate limited and even with in that limit rarely hit it games use lots of very small packets
gaming needs low latency not high bandwidth
you could game on 128Kbps if you had good routing
the only thing i seen an issue with that i already see is over sold nodes and DSLAMs but that can be fixed
ATT and other own a lot dark fiber out there so i realy dont see a backbone issue there saying this is
but the last mile will be worst FiOS will be ok cable as well IF they up the bandwidth to there nodes or add more
but there more backbone bandwidth then the telcos know what to do with |
