Bandtwith usage

i only run a small 10 player server and its kinda nice but more would be greater but i was wondering how much players can a 512 Kbps connection support with freelancer it seems to be pretty stable when its full and my server says it not even half loaded...

Most gamesi can host 10 to 12 players but i get the feeling i can go higher with freelancer somebody any idea..???

I would like to know too ... I have cable, but the uplink is maxed at 14kb/s (kilobytes per sec). I have tried 12 players and it worked fine. I just upped the limit to 14 but the global server is down, so won't be able to test it tonight since most of those who come to my server don't know my IP address.

Anyone can answer roughly how much a 14kb/s server can host?

OMG 12 players with only 14 kb/sec.

I have 52 kb/sec so how high can i go 20..???

now that would be cool.

Does anyone else have the problem that the server crashes within the hour? And not just the connection that is lost, the whole game and server client crashes.

I've tried it at my brothers, same problem.

Anyone else who experiences this?
