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....

0 SweeTs Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 Specs are way enough.. The problem may be the hdd read/write as Bobi mentioned if it's low speed. And ddos, K.O. Quote
0 Innos Posted March 20, 2015 Author Posted March 20, 2015 (edited) 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.. Edited March 20, 2015 by Innos Quote

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 Edited March 20, 2015 by Bobi Quote
0 'Baggos' Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 (edited) 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.. Edited March 21, 2015 by 'Baggos' Quote

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+. Quote
