Hello. I want to start my own server. I am in stage that i choose dedicated + protection. So first i think i want a dedicated so i will go to OVH dedicated. After i want a more protection so i want a remote ddos protection. I found one that tell me that give me 1tb clean traffic.

How much players handle this?

Any method to calculate the traffic per player?

You only need upload speeds for the server. The more you have the better.

Yeah i know. But now i talk about traffic. Out - In request. 

By 1 TB I hope you mean uplink traffic, otherwise anyone can shove down traffic your way and exceed the limit on a 0 player (or even offline) server.

 

The truth is, it depends on too many things to calculate even remotely correct values for traffic / player / month.

 

Here's a few things it depends on:

1. How badly your pack is coded (this includes L2OFF packs too, as a matter of fact)

2. Whether the server promotes clustered or solo (read: retail) gameplay

3. How many spawns you have and where they are

4. How many players are idle (e.g. private stores, afk, etc.) and how many are actively engaged in player-to-player interactions (this would include party XPing)

5. How is the solo XPing organized

 

Obviously, in a x1 (that's a joke, since there's no "real" x1 server for countless years now, including NA/KR/others) server, the traffic for the same amount of players will be drastically lower than in a single-town, perpetual pvp (or event) server. We are talking about orders of magnitude here.

1TB per month of bandwidth means you are able to upload 385kb/s 24'7 for the whole month.

 

Log to a server and open resource monitor. Check the average traffic of your client (receive) and do the calculations.

I understand guys. I go for 1 tb and i will see! Thank youvery much

 

 

If someone had server and know what is estimated bandwidth....
