Answer 1

Your connection is perfectly fine. I have a slightly slower connection and it runs just about perfect most of the time. If you do end up having problems with it, then you'll most likely need to open ports on your router, but you most likely won't have to.

Now, to stop confusion, I'll explain the difference of upload and download when involving online gaming. You need a decent download rate to play the games regardless, and this is used when join someones hosted game. You will use very little upload as your only transferring your own information, but receiving the rest from the host.

When hosting, this is when you need a good upload speed. This is because everyone is sending you the information, and then your console will distribute this information to everyone else in the game.

Hope this has helped you, and hope that you enjoy playing online on your XBox.

Answer 2

YOU NEED TO LOOK AT UPLOAD MORE THEN DONWLOAD BECAUSE YOUR NOT DOWNLOADING YOUR UPLOADING GAMEPLAY

BUT MINES IS 6905 IN DOWNLOAD AN 489 IN UPLOAD

AN MINE XBOX LIVE IS GREAT I NEVER LAG UNLES SITS ON THE OTHER PERSON  

Answer 3

My download is 1047 kb/s and 255 kb/s and I dont lag, so I think you should be ok with about almost twice my upload
