[QUOTE="Logic, post: 183708, member: 12691"] The above poster is half right.. lol ^^^ 1) This is true considering your server will be consuming a lot of power due to online time. 2) Windows Server isn't $20-$40. Try adding an extra 0 to those numbers. 3) If he wants to use his home connection, then he can. Really depends what he's "dedicating" his server to. 4) I doubt he's planning on using this for a Habbo retro. Not everything needs to be ran off IIS. 5) Isn't there more to than just installing Windows OS and IIS for home/dedicated servers? lol.. 6) Power outages is another thing you'll need to look into. Anyways, it's not recommended to run your dedicated server off your personal home internet connection. Several reasons that is pretty obvious (DDoS attacks, slower upload & download speeds, etc). Depending where you're from and what ISP you use - they may have rules against having a home server (like the ISP I used to be with). It depends if you're wanting to use it for personal use or for a game server of some sort. But personal use would be fine for a website or something, but not recommended for game servers unless you have the proper internet setup and possibly DDoS mitigation. [/QUOTE]
