Hahahah. That is NOT a fast server.

i base the server on cable or lower connection beside every one that has played it says it lag free but if your thinking the cpu is slow then the cpu doesn't do much while people are play it mostly your computer not the server
the cpu taxing says at 18% even when playes are playing
so it is technaclly "fast"
edit: and this "server" is a home desktop computer on long with 4 other computers it's next in line for the next upgrade which should be a couple of month from now and how can you tell when haven't played it?

"connection :cable with,

Not to be rude, but that is NOWHERE near enough. It would be ok for about 4 people maybe.

that was just tested results most of the time i get far higher results doing ftp uploads
those test could be wrong because of the amount of people useing the test at one time will reduce the upload download so it hard getting a good result from them
i not sure how much my bandwidth will hold so it may even carry more than i knew
i have four computers i can run mulitable servers on diffrent computers if it get too high traffic on the major server if the line can take it i will do that
and don't forget it's a bran-new server only 8 people are registered i will do the nessasary things to keep the server speedy enough
let end this argument before it get to far out of hand

All I'm saying is if it's cable, it's not going to handle very many players. It's not a "fast" server. 1.5 megabit+ is kind of fast. You have maybe 1/5th of that.

yeah... server shoud at least 1mbit up and down.

true but i not hosting a huge server right now i have 15 players and and every one says it smooth and my network only useing 2% and cpu is 50% and the server says 16 msec so unless 56kers come in it should say around there
it seams to be running fine right now
theres also the fact there are not to many people useing a connection greater than my mine
