What kind of connection/hardware would i need to host a pool?

Hi all, maybe you've been to the selling forum and noticed I am trying to sell a web server, but i have had a thought.  Maybe I should keep it and host a pool from it.  But then the question arises, what kind of hardware/internet connection would be required for this?   sorry if this has been asked before.

(Yes i posted this in pools forum too)
