Home Host ?

[Innos]

Hi,

 

I know this has been discussed before, but because the threads are very old and I have some questions, if you can answer me:

-6gb ram ddr3

-intel i5 3450 cpu @ 3.1ghz 3.1 ghz

-win 7 64 bit

-100mbps connection

 

1)Can I run a server from home with those specs? And if yes, how many players can I hold?

2)Is it safe to host it from home? If not, which are the dangers?

 

Thanks in advance mates!

still ppl doing home host servers ?

when is cheap dedicated servers for $13

How much $ electricity will use your home pc to be 24/7 online for month ?

 

anyway ... about the config is more depend of server pack you like to use

if is some crap even on 50 online can lag :)

 

about dangers/safe 

to read/write your HHD 24/7 is no sound good for me HDD live will go faster ofc wont be big effect on 50 online users and idk what HDD you have

simple ddos attack will kill your internet connection you wont be able even to open your porno sites :) FB,Mail....

Specs are way enough.. The problem may be the hdd read/write as Bobi mentioned if it's low speed. And ddos, K.O.

[Innos]

how can I tell you the specs of my hdd? If it's low speed, what's the deal?

Btw, ddos attack is an attack which will stop eventually, can't keep going forever, right?

With my specs, can I hold up to 300-500 players? And what is that config that can lag even 50 userS? Sorry but I got confused a lil bit..

google.com -> how to check my hdd specs...

yes ddos will stop some time for sure can be in 1h /1d /1w

probably you are using windows so its ok i had  400+ on linux with much lower configs

about lag on 50ppl its about when they are on one slot like siege/event.... idk it is coming from server pack or software config or hdd but i saw it few times in some servers

Greek connection is too bad..

This guy is from Greece...

 

My connection... with 0.89Mbit/s upload. There is not big difference with someone else.

Except if you have VDSL...

 

 

So, you understand what i mean..

Even with VDSL you will have problem, if you have more than 800m from node then you are not able to have a VDSL and even you have VDSL you will never get 50MBps

(That's the 'rules' of OTE [greek company wich provide Internet)

 

About the REAL distance of VDSL...

 

250 Mbit/s at source to 100 Mbit/s at 0.5 km (1,600 ft) and 50 Mbit/s at 1 km (3,300 ft), but degrades at a much slower rate from there, and outperforms VDSL. Starting from 1.6 km (0.99 mi) its performance is equal to ADSL2+.

Just so is the things...

Thank you for completing..

 

Will never keep a homemade server if you want a serious game..

You can see here for something cheap..
