multiplayer works fine on my 10mb/s ethernet lan. i played all afternoon with a friend and it ran perfectly.
 
we had both win2k computers using graphics maxed out, one with ATI Rage Fury, the other with Diamond Viper 770 Ultra.
 
I don't know about dial-in or broadband connections, but I did notice the game was using most of the bandwidth of the lan, so I would expect any tcp connection that is not broadband would probably be very laggy.
 
Hopefully EA will tune their network code in a patch soon.
