Will upload power boost from Comcast be stable enough to host games on PC or xbox live? The reason I ask is because I have been testing for 3 days now and I constantly clock in between 1.4-1.5 megs up. And before I had upload power boost European people rarely came in my room...now since this upload boost has been implemented people from all over the world have been coming in my rooms more through opti match. Now the optimatch feature wouldn't reccomend them come into my room if it would be a bad connection, correct? Please let me know what you guys think. Basically when I host in games like call of duty 3 on xbox 360 which supports 24 players...even though I'm paying for a 6/(3??k). Should I not host? Or since nobodys getting lag and my speed tests are a stable 1.3-1.5 megs up am I okay? Thanks again guys.

the powerboost only last a few mb so hosting a big game is not a good idea.  just think about splitting that 768 upload with 24 players? here is 1 16 man halo 2 game i was hosting and how much it used
