Even with a 1-2 second delay your speed should beat the hell out of a dial up modem.

That totally depends on the application. For streamed video and large downloads, yes, the 1-2 second delay is nothing. But even 0.25 sec would be way too much for online action games. The modem players would make paste of you if you played on a satellite modem.
