Hey so I have a problem and I don’t know how to fix it. I have no access to port forwarding because spectrum sucks and I can’t access the router. It just takes me to a page that says “go to the spectrum app” and I can’t log in to said app. I live with my mom because personal issues but not the point. She has the login, will not give it to me, and I cannot use playit.gg for some reason. I was told that maybe it was my isp blocking it and I have no idea what to do. I have hardly any money coming in and I have no idea how I could possibly run a server knowing playit.gg doesn’t work no matter what I do.

I have asked around for server help, but it feels like people have been constantly telling me to buy a server or join a server when it isn’t a viable option. Me and my friends are all adults. We as a group don’t really like hanging around people we don’t know, so I wanna run a private server so it’s just us. I don’t have enough money to pay monthly for a server, I have 6 dollars rn.

I’m hesitant to run aternos because I’ve not had the best experience with it, but I feel like it might be my only choice. What should I do?

Oooooooh ok ok
the tb cost is 90 usd
@Connecticut Warbler wouldnt entirely recommend ec2
Havanese
i second this
Connecticut Warbler
and we dont know his player count only that he cant forward
@Connecticut Warbler wouldnt entirely recommend ec2
EC2 Free Tier for a simple FRP install for his friends is entirely reasonable and more than enough.
100 gb limit for free iirc
he has 6 bucks. 15 or so players average uses up to a tb a month
he has 1/10th of that.
a terabyte of transfer a month? that sounds high to me.
@PM_ME_YOUR_REPO a terabyte of transfer a month? that sounds high to me.

it really isnt
i know 60 player servers doing 10 tb a month etc
mc is heavy as fuck when it comes to traffic
sheesh. what even are deltas.
Connecticut Warbler
20-30 player averages

smaller peak of a lot more tho, still
server started 15 days into the month btw
this depends on settings ofc, if youre hosting a resourcepack etc
but 100 gb just isnt very much
I guess with block data that makes sense. In terms of like MMOs, that would be insane.
