For having 20 players in at one point, we only peaked at 1.5 Mbit outbound, a lot less than I expected. I don't know for sure if that's due to a QOS cap that kicked in at 1.5 or not, but even so, you can see the average was closer to 1 Mbit of traffic.Inbound traffic hovered around 0.5 Mbit while gaming, but spiked to 8.2 Mbit when I was installing TF2 :-)
Just out of curiosity, what would you consider excessive?
ReplyDeleteDoing a little math. That's 7.68 KBytes/s to each person which is about twice the bandwidth of an old 56K modem or a single ISDN line.
