i can answer a few of those. they are stable. if you plan on making your server big then i recomend like 25-30 boot zones up and limit your amount of people on at one time to like 27 or 28. i used to run my own server until i got tired of placing mobs in all the zones.

Thanks

guildwars 2 runs a crapload of zones ( ~ 100 or so ) and has ~100 ppl on it any given time.

It was said that they're using half of a 1mbit up/down pipe.

so a client takes approximately 5kb/s each.

Thanks for the info i think i will get one going

Ok what ports need to be open for a server?

Might want to ask these questions in a support forum. This forum's to talk about existing servers, really :)
