*shrug*  Maybe, maybe not.  You can't say for certain w/o actually trying
it.

If I were to guess, I'd say it's not going to get you a lot since you're
only on a cable modem.  The best sustained that you might be able to get
would only be abou 100k.  Most home traffic is 'peakish' where it spikes,
and then dies all across the board.

Cheers!
