Also it is latency that matters.
Each player is only 5-15kb up/down a second so anyone with a 2mb line could in theory host as well as someone on 20mb.
In practice the 20mb line has likely a much lower latency.
It really depends though, someone in the US hosting a game for a bunch of people in the UK will have problems and vice versa. A mainly UK game hosted by someone in the UK with the odd overseas player will function far better. Regardless of the speed.
