Yesterday, I convinced my boss to allow me to play with one of our new Xeon servers for the day. I installed the FDS and proceeded to hook it up to our T1 line and host a 128 player server. It ran great for about 12 hours then got up to 112 players and the computer completely lost power and shut down...  Twas' fun though.

There is no way a single T1 line can take more than 50 players.
In fact I doubt you would get much more than 30 players without lag making it totally unplayable.

Trust me, it lagged, I'm not 100% sure it was T1 (It is accoring to my boss, but he's retarted) But, it worked and was quite fun (except for warping across the map into buildings  )

I hosted 32 players on a T-1 and it was laggy. I had my nur at about 10 or 12.
If all my servers are full on my dual Xeon box, I am hosting 94 players. But when they're separated between servers, the bandwidth usage is closer to about 7-8 mbps (which is like 5 T-1s).
I'm the bawss.

with todays standards T1 is slow. Only good for symetrical work or long distances were DSL/cable will not go. Some cable ISPs offer 10/1 speeds
WOL: "Good connections almost always"

Such as optimum online or whatever it is called, the reliability of t1 would be higher though.
