how much bandwidth does BOTF need?

Post by ruthlessferengi »

so, how much bandwidth does botf need for mp? say if someone is watching netflix and i am playing mp, would old lynksys router be sufficient? so far it's been great but i wonder sometimes when games crash - it's a pity when my ruthless ambitions are thwarted by some Dora the Explorer feature on netflix... :)

I doubt it take much bandwidth I would be more worried about being timed out due slower internet connection.

But truth is I have no clue

if your computer savvy enough you can throttle bandwidth of netflix on your linksys router.
What internet connection do you have and how many mb's?
