Yes it is, but the poor upload conditions will adversely affect your ability to get anything downloaded (including screens). Download won't be great but you may well thin it's OK.

If you can't get your upstream slot (keeping it simple) then there's no ability for any response to occur. For TCP based downloads, you are guaranteed packet delivery and the re-request will get you your next packet.

Gaming send requests are UDP protocol and are discardable. If discarded you lose your place in the game (again keeping it simple).

IMO of course.
