I have a slow DSL connection at 700KBS and it works great for the ps3, a 2MBS is perfect for online gaming.
2mb is pretty slow. I live in the U.S. and my Broadband speed is 12-14 mb. I’ve never had a problem with that speed.
Do a spped test opn your CPU or PS3.
Google search “internet speed test” and you’ll be able to find out your actual speed.
I used to play on Xbox Live on a 512k connection, so 2meg should do you fine.
Where your provider says it’s 2mb they usually mean upto 2mb speed but i think you should be fine playing it on any broadband connection my isp is upto 8mb but the actual speed is 5.6mb and i only live 100 yards from the exchange
