The Little Guy Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 I don't know if this is the right board, but... What would a good internet connection speed be if you were to run a dedicated server from a PC?Here is the package that I may get:- 5 Mbps download and 1 Mbps upload- Support for dynamic and static IP addressesThat is a business package with Charter.

remmargorp Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 It depends on how much data you plan on transferring/what you're serving. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/27496-internet-connection-speeds/#findComment-125783 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Little Guy Posted November 16, 2006 Author Share Posted November 16, 2006 I was thinking that it would be a review site, where users would come and look at reviews of all sorts of products.-Cars-Movies-Games-electronics-clothing-accessories-hygiene products (Shampoo, Clone, Perfume, etc.)-furniture-etc.So... Basically this would be an all Database driven site, with some pictures to make the site not look boring.[hr]Hypothetically Speaking;Would this be a good, if this were to be a image hosting service?

remmargorp Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 With hosting a server like that, your primary concern would be with upload bandwidth.Also, if your provider has any bandwidth limitations. For example, your upload may be 1Mbps, but they may only allow you 20GB total per month.1 Mb upload should be fine for what you're looking to do.

The Little Guy Posted November 16, 2006 Author Share Posted November 16, 2006 I don't think that my ISP has a bandwidth limit.How many connections do you think that will support at once?

remmargorp Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 It depends on what you serve.1 megabit is 128 kilobytes"Essentially" you can serve 10 people the same 12.8 kilobyte page at the same time.In reality it can handle more than that Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/27496-internet-connection-speeds/#findComment-125887 Share on other sites More sharing options...
