Srcds use upload or download

[Lazybender]

i've been testing srcds. i watch at my internet usage and it was 0 but 2 hours later it was 47mb but at the same time i was browing http://www.srcds.com . its not possiable to do 47mb browsing the net.


SO does srcds use ur upload or ur download?

It uses both.

Most important is upload, since this causes lag on client if you don't have enough upload speed. With upload the server sends to the clients inside the server. Upload usage is alot when you use a SRCDS, or any server of any kind.

Download is used by the the clients, the clients send data to the server on for example when they shoot and where they walk.

On an average server your uplaod and download usage are the same, but this totally depends on how the server and the clients are configured
