Thread: Setup my own Server

I want to setup my own server!
I have a connection of 1 MB as Internet Connection, will it be enough to create my server ?

Why people says 100mbit or 1 gbps, what is this ? their internet connection ?

That is not enough..

What do you use.. Wireless or Ethernet?:

Wireless:

• 802.11b: transfers data at a maximum rate of 11 megabits per second (Mbps)

• 802.11g: transfers data at a maximum rate of 54 Mbps

• 802.11a: transfers data at a maximum rate of 54 Mbps


(For example, downloading a 10 megabyte [MB] photo from the Internet under optimal conditions takes about 7 seconds on an 802.11b network and about 1.5 seconds on an 802.11g or 802.11a network.)

Ethernet:

Speed
Ethernet transfers data at either 10, 100, or 1000 Mbps, depending on the type of cables used. Gigabit Ethernet is the fastest, with a transfer rate of 1 gigabit per second (or 1000 Mbps).

(For example, downloading a 10 megabyte [MB] photo from the Internet under optimal conditions takes about 8 seconds on a 10 Mbps network, about 1 second on a 100 Mbps network, and less than a second on a 1000 Mbps network.)


Got it from Microsoft ^^ :P

It's not enough

Unless you have a good metropolitan bandwidth and the site visitors will be from that network

you need more conniction speed

Wow, 1mb? Thats bad.

Definately not enough, download WAMP and do a quick speed test, it'll most likely be very slow.

BTW, if you want to make internet web server you need port 80, usually your ISP will block port 80.
