768 is fair

Most "DSL Lite" packages are 768. I think that's what most would call minimum broadband speed. It's a night and day diffrence faster then dialup.

768 may be just OK for the minimum (although it should have been 768/256) but 6 Mbps is obscenely low for a premium tier.

My first broadband connection was 768k SDSL. To this date, that was my favorite connection ever. Lowest latency, most consistent performing.

Sure, now I am on something that is technically faster, and it is in raw throughput, but it still just isn't the same. Particularly when running large numbers of connections across it.
