Bandwidth per user...

[repdtek]

I am setting up a CS server on a cable line that will be set at 386/386.
How do I determine how much avaliable bandwidth I need for each user?
Or in other words how many players can I support at once?
How much memory should I use and what is the most critical factor for seemless lag free
game play?

From what I have seen, Quake games take about 5 KB per user, so you could serve about 10 users on your 384 Kbit line.
