There really is no 'average' speed. Most ISPs and DSL providers have different plans with different upload/download speeds (and prices).

The faster you get with DSL, the more you can expect to pay.

I would not go with anything below:
[list=1][*]Less than 1024Kbps (~1Mbps) download speed. This will equal about 125k/s.[*]Less than 384Kbps upstream. This will equal to about 48k/s when you are uploading.[/list=1]

I would expect to pay anywhere from $40-50 USD for the above.

Anything else will just seem slow ;)
