Its been posted around that 2mbps is minimal.

But to be safe i would say, 6-10.

I have 30 with no issues really.

Where the server streaming is, factors in a lot. Netflix uses a CDN to give you servers close to you, so the speed is less needed. But if you are in the Western USA, and the server is Spain, you are going to need a faster connection, as you lose a lot of speed as you make that distance work.

Using Netflix as a gauge to see if you can watch IPTV is not a good way to test. Netflix tests your speed before it starts playing and will adjust the stream bandwidth based on your speed. I would say your safe with 5 Megs to be able to watch up to the HD channels as long as no one else is using your Internet connection.
