Re: Uh huh... I would just die if that's the truth...I doubt it would work out though....to run a server in terms of a game such as Counter-Strike you'd need at minimum 512kbps of upload to run a 16...Team Fortress Classic you only need a minimum of 256kbps in which most of us have anyway.
I run a server off my connection via Cox HighSpeed Internet, Inc...however I never go over the 1GB upload limit per day - or for the 7.3GB per month of that matter.
Another issue that should be brought up is port blocking...I find it if you are paying for the service...you should be ALMOST freely to use it for what you wish. (Warez, etc) I can see if they try to stop you for that. Another note is FTP eats up bandwidth more than running a full-time server would.
Perhaps Cable Companies have come to their senses?? |
