It will work just more likely that you'll have a slower connection on live.

rite now i have the new verizon fios service, the fiber optic line. its great, i had cable before and had no problems, and i know that is comparible to dsl. so it should work great for you, as cable did for me, but the fiber optic line from verizon is perfect. the only trouble i have is from other people and places that i am trying to conect to. any way good luck with the new conection. and game on

Hi, Your DSL connection with that specific bandwidth (128 Kbps) will work fine (tested for 12 to 14 online players wink.gif... issues such as "latency" (the reason why satellite connection are such a pain...), "NAT" (If you only have 1 valid IP address and need to expand internet access in your LAN), "download time" if you are using xbox live marketplace; which you will use wink.gif (according to your download speed you may get around 100 MB per/hour, so demo games such a DOA 4 will take probably more than 6 hours to download),... are much more important...
