Servers running off people's home computers usually seem to come and go.

Will this particular server eventually become the one with the most "uptime"?
I think that was the PEQ server? Afaik, it's used for database testing..working on getting all the spawns in eqemu to be a bit more like eqlive.

Quote:
Will there be servers dedicated to achieving the most "uptime"?
No idea, sorry :p

Quote:
Are most servers on the list for private use?
Really just depends on the person who started the server. It's their choice if they want it to be locked or open to the public.

Wich ones can I play on? I dont care if its legit/custom or not. I just want to
be able to play the game and be assured that the server will be there a year from now.
It depends on your version of everquest. If you patched to eqlive, which I assume you did since you were on the PEQ server...you an only play on 0.6.1 servers. There's really no guarantee any server will be up a year later.

Can I use my Cable connection and create a server to appear on the list?
Yes

Quote:
Can it be a server to allow say up to 20 players?
Yes, although there will probably be a lot of lag unless your cable connection happens to have a high upstream (40-50kb/s isn't very high...seems most cable companies have upstream capped at that)

Quote:
If so..Can I use something like a Linksys wireless router and play on my server with another computer or even a laptop by just selecting my server from the list?
Yes


You can find a lot of info just by going through posts in the forum, and/or searching.
