Frequently asked questions
Here are some of the questions we get asked frequently about DediConnect.
Which machines are best for DediConnect?
We set up a list of supported providers. For these providers you can find guides that help you order, configure and connect the machine with GSA.
Recommended machine specifications
- 3.5Ghz or better
- 64GB+ memory (RAM)
- 500GB+ disk (SSD or NVMe)
- Fresh installed OS (Linux or Windows)
Additionally installing GSA without a fresh installation of Linux or Windows can cause issues.
Do I keep full root access to my machine?
Yes, you keep full access to your machine, because it's yours.
What is the difference between GSA:Hosted and DediConnect?
About 99% is the same. Things like GEO separate backups are not available for DediConnect. With DediConnect you are responsible for the hardware, where GSA is responsible for GSA:Hosted hardware.
Can I set custom the ports for game servers?
Yes, but we strongly recommend you don't. If you're stubborn, you can configure the Query, Game, Raw Game & Rcon / Telnet ports.
How many game servers can I host on a machine?
That depends on the dedicated machine. On average each game server will use 7GB of RAM (memory). If you want to host 10, we recommend you have at least 70GB of memory available on the machine. Make sure to reserve at least 4GB or RAM for the machine itself. So for this example you would need at least 74GB of RAM.
Which Operating Systems (OS) are currently supported?
You can currently use Debian 10 & 11 or Windows Server 2019 (Standard).
Can I switch to a different Operating System (OS) later?
You can re-install the machine if you want to switch to a different OS. GSA will automatically detect the new OS.
Need help setting up a supported provider machine?
We set up guides for every step in the process.
What services can GSA install on my machine?
We currently support installing:
- MySQL
- Syncthing
