My home ADSL line is 384kbps up thru swbell. I'm running a small 8 player CS port off of it right now, and when full no one lags out because of a lack of bandwidth. My maxrate is set to 3000, and I really don't see the need to set a minrate, so it's at zero. I could probably host 10 players or so before my line started to saturate.
I miss the OC3 I used to be hosted on :-/ K2 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://nexus.hardfought.org -----Original Message----- From: Stan Hoeppner [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, October 05, 2001 8:16 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Tell me how roflmao! $120 for 1.1Mb/s SDSL? I wish! SW Bell here in St. Louis gets $139 for 384Kb/s SDSL. 768Kb/s SDSL is $219, 1.1Mb/s is $249, and 1.5Mb/s SDSL is $289.
