Hi all, I am able to get dedicated hosting very cheap, provided by my Employers. Dedicated CPU and all that jazz is not a problem. Only Bandwidth. I need to ascertain how much bandwidth I will be using to see if this is affordable. My questions are: 1. How much bandwidth is used per month contacting the main ARMA server? 2. What is the lowest Max Ping setting I could implement? If I can limit traffic to National traffic (here in NZ) via max ping settings then it is close to free and I can provide another server to the meager list. If I have to use 2~TBs of International traffic then I am left with a bill in the thousands of dollars.. Any info would be much appreciated. And yes I have gone through all the Server FAQs and searched the forums. Thanks again. Bumping as required.

Bloody Aussies will be the death of me! :lol: Ok. Back to the drawing board. Don't want to be a prick but if I can make it Kiwi only... :blush:

Thank you Freeborne, that is very helfpful. To be honest it looks like I will be able to host a NZ server (or two!) if I can limit the max ping to 100~ms to limit players to the NZ locale only. Now if I could only get word on if this would be ok...

I meant data rather than bandwidth, long day, however that's some great info. Unfortunately that make it one very very expensive server that would cost more than my salary. Sad.
