OK,I just spent almost 2 grand on a kick ass hosting comp. Im running 64-bit windows on it. Its a dual prossesor with like 5 gigs of ram. Built it myself. Anyways, I can host a 32-60 renegade server on it without tons of lag. I know how to work almost every kind of bot for the server: brenbot, br.net, dragonccell or whatever...your choice of bot. I can work mIRC very well. I have cable internet temporarily (until I get my T3 internet working again) so I can host a 16-24 player server right now. Well im looking for a clan or community in need/want of another server, I was kind of hoping something like non00bs, n00bless, zer0BS, xphaze, you know something like that. So if you are interested in having a very nice renegade server feel free to post.Thanx,
EleMeNtaL

Haha, oh man..
Even if you had a T3 to your house, that's not going to provide enough bandwidth to host "32-60 renegade server."
Nobody is going to put a reputable game server on a residential single-homed connection with crappy peering anyway.
cause = time

A T3 connection only provides 4.3 MB/sec upload. That's assuming you're on a full T3, rather than a shared one. I hope your server doesn't have a lot of players... I'd say the most you'll be able to host would be about 30.

incorrect... a T3 is 45Mbit per second.. it's enough telephone bandwidth to serve a small town.. before the age of broadband internet, of course.

I know exactly that a T3 is 45MBit per sec. That's why I said 4.3MB/sec. MB = Megabyte. After your IP (TCP, UDP, etc) overhead, you'll get roughly 4.3MB. And yes, it is indeed plenty bandwidth for a small town before the age of broadband. Today, 43MBit is good for (I'm guessing here) about 10-20 houses, at the very most.

If you understand that, then you obviously don't understand how to convert a player's bandwidth to MBytes..
45 Megabit is 5.6 Megabyte.. assuming we do account for TCP overhead and only see an actual 4.3 Megabytes.. We can still host about 235 players each receiving 150 Kilobits each.. Not the 30 you stated.
A 40 player server with a really high NUR on a 100 Megabit port could average around 4000 - 5000 kilobits per second of bandwidth.. If the computer could handle it, the T3 connection could host 7-8 of those servers running on it.

Ahh, forgive me. I was thinking that the F8 -> FPS display was showing data in KBytes/sec rather than KBits.
It does always seem to max out at my maximum downstream KBytes rather than KBits... And I do recall someone mentioning long ago that Renegade uses a shitload of bandwidth compared to other games, which is why I thought the KBPS display was KBytes rather than KBits.

It's DragonServ from black-cell not dragonccell, I seriously doubt you even have it to even be able to know "how to work it".
And if you manage to max out your two 32 player servers with players on that connection that is shared between 500 people then yes it will lag.
Also your daddy might get annoyed one day because he is recieving a DDOS attack from some little punk who got busted cheating and banned.
