But still, it has been discussed many times . . . Hosting from home [webmasterworld.com] How to host from home [webmasterworld.com] Can I host my new website from my home PC? [webmasterworld.com] .... etc., they all have the same flavor.

Home servers are great though for use as a testing ground and for getting new sites off the ground. 2mbps sounds very low if it is your download speed. Upload speed is what you need to be concerned about and it is usually much slower than the download speeds ISPs like to brag about.
