The bandwidth needed will depend on how many sites and how much traffic they receive. As for software and OS it would depend on your needs, and if you would be installing any control panels on this server, Linux or Windows, etc...

You should install centos, and get a cpanel license. This will allow you to manage your websites fully. cPanel makes it really easy. Runs PHP, MYsql and phpmyadmin.

As for th esetup of a server from your home. I would recommen colocating. It asures your server won't go down, much more reliable.

Thanks.
