Hello, I am planning to do several Lan parties in 100 people increments starting at 100 people and hopefully getting to a 1,000 connections simultaneously in two years from now.
My question is, what equipment will I need and what is roughly going to be the cost? Games at the lan party will both be playable at local network (such as CS) as well as online (such as LoL).
I know it's quite vague, but in what equipment should I be investing from the beginning if I would like to head to a 1,000 event (lets say venue capabilities are able to support 1-2 Mbps/person download and 100-300 Kbps upload).
By my thinking I would imagine in each event I will need to add a router to support 4 switchers at 24 ports (96 users in total per router).
PS. There will be no WiFi allowed, so all connections will strictly be through a wire, therefore a router does not need to have WiFi capabilities
