Title: Internet Connection Speed Post by: woooooofa on September 17, 2011, 04:14:54 PM What is the absolute minimum connection speed that would be required for a bitcoin mining operation?

Also the block chain is getting closer to 1gb so it wouldn't be fun if u had to install the bitcoin client on that system, and having to wait for the chain to be updated. Either way any ISP other then dial up should be just fine.
