One of the rural places I visit frequently only has 256/256 kbps QWest. It is decent so long as not doing massive upload/download. I have uploaded multi-gigabyte videos from there before though. Works fine so long as you're in no hurry, but at least can still browse, email, IM, etc. while waiting.
A hurry must be a couple days for you.

(256/8/1024)*60*60*24=2700 megabytes, in ideal situation. Must be a couple days or a week to upload each of those multi gigabyte videos, egh?

What about when you browse the web and your upload slows down because the acks are getting to you slower?
