Internet crashes while hosting a server locally (with lots of block changes)
Hello, I've hosted a server for years through a hosting service and have been looking in to building a dedicated machine to run in my home. I've been running tests on my PC before doing so and have run in to a problem I can't find a straight answer to.
I can get the server up and running, as well has having players connect without issue. However, after I try to stress test the network by either generate a lot of chunks, or lighting a bunch of TNT, the internet on my machine stops working. When it happens, it's like my upload speed stops first. Other devices in the home connected to the same router via ethernet and wifi have no issues. While watching the network portion of my Task Manager, "Send" immediately goes to 0kbps while "receive" continues to have indicate data is transmitting. While in Discord voice chat I can hear players who were on the server say "it crashed" but they can't hear anything I'm saying. After a moment the entire internet connection on my PC stops working all together. Someone mentioned it could be a bandwidth problem, but I'm not sure how I'd investigate that. The plan with my ISP allows for 20mbps up, so as far as I know that should be enough.
The only way to get my internet working again is to restart my entire PC. Does this sound like it could be a problem with my network/ISP, or perhaps just my modem? Or could there be some setting I'm overlooking in the server config files?
