Default XBOX Live

Is there anyone in the Chicago area that knows which AT&T and which Comcast speeds will work with XBOX Live. I'm currently paying $44 for Comcast Cable Internet (12MB) and really don't need that speed anymore. I just need a fast enough speed for XBOX Live.

The faster the better. Do you have Clear in your area? Try them.

Clear is coming soon it's not here yet. I'm just looking for the minimum so my son can play.

I have XBOX Live..

I think that 5mb would be enough. There is only transfer of information, not the actual game. if you're provider offers "tiers" of service I would imagine that a lower one would be fine. I have 8mb here in the sticks of Northern NJ and I have no issues. I also have friends who play online and have DSL which is 1.5 mb downloads.

I;m paying $44 for 12mb and I really don't need that speed, 1.5mb is around $20 there's nothing in between with Comcast. If 1.5mb should work I'll give it a shot, can always switch back, just hate dealing with Comcast customer service they are the worst.
