2142 playable on 512kpbs connection?

Abroad at the moment, ordered a much needed laptop and might get round to playing 2142 on it with a wireless 512k dsl connection. What sort of pings might I expect? Is it playable or will the delay be so bad that I'll just be losing fire fights the whole time?

512 is good, but wireless isn't. Expect to lose connections once in a while, while in game, due to packet transfer and stuff.

Had a feeling that might be the case, although I think the wireless here is on a timer or cuts out when there is inactivity.

Shouldn't have a problem them, unless you are sure, it will be pretty un-playable, used to play on a 2MBPS wireless, got a "Lost connection to the server" every minute or so.

Either that, or you will experience horrible ping for few extents of time.
