Out of interest, say if some friends want to get together to CS where would be the bottlenecks or degradations when using a standard CS system. How much affect would it have on all users if say 10 people shared instead of 5 people? Or if the 'Server' box was connected to a 1MB connection or a 3MB connection ? Just trying to figure out what the optimal setup would be. Thanks.
if you stuck to about a max of 10 you should not really have any degradation in picture ,however some people go up to 20 or so and been ok .but you and 10 mates sharing would be fine and more than enough to keep cost low.
Does it matter what your/my d.load & upload speed is, or does it realy matter (as in the host)? also what about the 9/10 others that would be sharing from you in regards there speeds?
