my wifi works great so far i have to say...

256 is slow, but 'should' be okay... funny tho that it seems more expensive now to go with a slower speed than with the faster/fastest available here... i dunno but that has been the case i have found comparing prices and such...

Sad tho that a kid in a mud hut in ethiopia will have faster broadband tho...

No it doesn't. It all depends on what router you have. Visit the Official Nintendo WiFi website and it gives you a list on which router is best for Nintendo WiFi connection.
