I would say it depends on how often you can leave your modem on. I
upgraded to unstable from stable (back before there was testing) using a
33.6k connection. It took me something like a week or maybe a few weeks,
but I lived by myself and just left the modem on.
You just apt-get dist-upgrade every day and leave your modem on all night
(and possibly all day).
