Is 3mb broadband speed alot?

[Bouncing]

Basicially I might be getting mobile broadband on pay as you go for my laptop because I take too much bandwidth, they go up to 3mb broadband speed is that enough just for me to use but use it for like going online on my wii on ie mario kart or stuff like maplestory on my laptop?

What? I didnt understand most of that

Well my average speed is about 1.5mb I believe (assuming you mean mb/s) and I don't have any problems with using the net at all, so 3mb should be fine, although take whatever theys ay with a pinch of salt because "up to 3mb/s" can mean literally any number from 1 to 3000kb/s.

3Mbps is pleanty as long as it's not heavily contended. Using a 3g mobile connection for gaming though will suck. Massive latency.

I second that.

I have a 10MB Connection, but it sucks, never reached 10240KBP/S - infact never reachs 300kbp/s, but i have had 291KB/s

Because of a high contention ratio. Try it at around 5-6a.m and see what it's like.

I played CSS using 3G once. Lets say the ping with over 1 second.

It might also be some settings on my PC? Any ideas what?

I very much doubt it is.
