My family and I are possibly going to upgrade our internet connection soon, right now we get 4mbps. I would like to be able to host at least 30 players at a time right now. Any suggestions?
I'm assuming that's 4 down... what about upload speed?
You'll probably want a quad, or at least a decent dual core since it's a lot of processing to generate all the chunks. That and a decent amount of RAM.

I've never hosted a MC server that big, so I couldn't really say . Probably at least 8GB. CPU is going to be important as well because of all the chunk generating/destruction/etc. going on...especially if you're running mods.

4 mbps down / 1 up will not cut it for anything over like.. three players sadly My 60 down / 6 up feels the squeeze with ~15
That would be your biggest thing holding you back.
At least a quad core with 8GB RAM. My server regularly hits ~7.5GB used (with a dozen or so plugins mind you), though it wouldn't matter much with only a 1mbps upload.
