Anyone worked with legitimate bandwidth brokers?
someone that can provide pricing for multiple providers (Level3, Global Crossing, and Cogent at a minimum) that I know are available in a building we have service in.
im trying to remotely install WS2003 EE R2 on a dedicated server I have purchased and have an issue. I'm installing it via KVM IP which is cool
however, after installing the network card drivers, I get a "There is no or limited connectivity" etc... so I cannot access the internet or anything on that box.
what do I do from here? how can I make the card work? It is configured to obtain the IP Address automatically as well as using the default DNS. I do have 2 IP Addresses "assigned" to me/my account but dont believe I need to configure them in WS2003?
Is it better to have a rack in a carrier neutral datacenter and get feeds to the rack from various diverse carriers.
Or
Is it better to have a rack in an ISP datacenter where they provide the connectivity for you?
is anyone else having trouble with burst.net at the moment? from two locations, i'm having problems where anything that will elicit a large response just hangs indefinitely. i can ping my server just fine, i can shell into it... if i do "top" or "dmesg" or anything else that might dump back more than a few lines of response at a time, the ssh session hangs. i can do "ps x" as a regular user, because i only have two processes running. "ps ax" will hang ssh.
none of my websites work, and i can't get on the burst.net website from either location. i tried calling but no matter what sequence i try for (even tried reboots) i can't get ahold of a live person, but then again it is almost midnight.
anyone else experiencing this?
I have tested so many compagny I can't even remember and with all of thoses compagny my customers had lagg pikes or this kind of things.
I am hosting a gameserver service which required a top connectivity , most of my customers are in europe and I looked for the best dedicated provider in europe.
I tested OVH , ngz-server , bestserver.eu and much more but it was the same problem.
If someone know a good dedicated server provider in europe using premium bandwidth with good carier and not only with peerings .
I have looked a bit at serverboost.nl they seems serious but I have no feedback about them.
If you have any provider with a top connectivity it would help me a lot to choose what deserve my customers.
A DDos protection is a must also (not for bigg ddos but littles one ).
for you what country of Europe has the best prices in connectivity?
So far the best thing I have found is in Amsterdam with 10 € / Mbps (100Mbps) or 7€ / Mbps (1Gbps).
Is anyone else having issues with Layered Technologies. For the past 18+ hours they've been 'down' from the Global Crossing network. Does anyone know anyone at Savvis and/or Global Crossing that can check and see what's wrong with their routing?
View 7 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to install tor on a server, and serve up websites using the Tor connectivity/proxy IP (not the server's real IP)?
If yes, what's the procedure for setting this up?
And should all nameservers continue to resolve to the server's "real" IP(s) or...?
We have a VPS with Media Temple. Their data center is somewhere on the westcoast. From time to time we have severe issues to connect from our Brooklyn/NY locations. We experienced the connectivity issue from 2 physical locations. Doing a tracert gave us a good result.
There are usually 4-8 users using our shop admin for order processing or the shopping cart for manual order entry. While they are having problems connecting from there, I can connect just fine from Calgary/AB, Canada. Most of the time no issues at all.
how to debug that?
Is anyone having a problem with Intermedia's Hosted Sharepoint (WSS 3.0) Service? For the past couple days I've had sporadic service. Finally today, None of my pc's can get to my hosted sharepoint site. I even tried my site from 3 other locations, all with different ISP's, networks, and even geographic locations. (2 Corporate spots in OKC, Tulsa, Dallas).
Anyways their tech support says they can log in fine, and it's just a problem with my ISP. (I tried to emphasis the fact that it's 4 different ISP's all having the same issue).
Ping's good, I even get an authentication window. Just when I put in credentials I get The connection was interrupted.
Anyways phone support could only offer to open a ticket for me. Can anyone else using Intermedia Hosted Sharepoint let me know if they too are having problems? I realize Hosted Email is probably working fine.
for a linux VPS package provider that can provide both IPv4 and IPv6 (not tunneled) connectivity. IRC client/bots are not a priority but would be a bonus.

4) Is the old ping response time the best metric to verify a web host speed connectivity?
5) Is there an indipendent and unbiased website that reviews and report web hosts ping response times?
I am interested in finding out any experiences people have had in the last year or so with Savvis or Net2EZ.
I'm primarily interested in experience with the IP connectivity they provide, as well as their co-location, reliability, etc.
I have experience with Savvis from quite a while ago, but presumably that experience may no longer apply.
It's likely we will end up buying transit from multiple carriers and deal with BGP, etc.
But I am also interested in hearing about Savvis's Diverse Internet availability product.
As for Net2EZ, I'd be primarily interested in hearing about their colo services and if anyone has had experience connecting to Carriers in the next door Equinix facility.
I ordered yesterday, and got it today! But I have the box, 100 MB unmetered line, I downloaded utorrent, donloaded a file at 10 MB/per sec, but For some reason the box wont seed, and the tiny little yellow banner on the bottom says there are no incoming connections (this is usually green if your port is open) It wont seed... the DL is great, is there a box setting that is blocking this? there is no installed firewall, and the ports are all open....
View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen you can't access your server via SSH or Remote Desktop, what do you use to fix the problem without filing a ticket?
IPMI?
Serial console?
KVM over IP?
Dial up connection?
Backup network connection?
Get up and walk to the server? :-)
If you had a choice between them, what did you pick and why?
Does your dedicated server provider give it to you for free, or do you have to pay extra for it?
I've got a housed server within my customer's datacenter. I consider application runs ok, but it goes very slow.
I consider it's due to their connection (DSL) and installed another provisional server with a simple "Hello World" and no traffic. I'm to install the same server within another datacenter, and would like to find an external tool to certify connectivity times.
Do you know any of these tools? I'm not searching tools like 'Apache AB' or 'HP httperf', but public online services.
There are several methods of offering network path redundancy. The basic decision for me has come down to:
Do it at Layer 2
Do it at Layer 3
At the moment we have layer 2 redundancy to each server. 2NICs on the server up with one having the IPs for apache/mysql/etc. each nic going into a seperate switch and the switches connected together, with 2 routers running VRRP to handle the gateway.
Everything is Vlaned.
So basicaly the switch redundancy is done by spanning tree and the IP redundancy is done with a process on the router/server to move the IP to the other router/server NIC if there is an issue.
I am thinking about going with 2 fully seperate networks. in differant subnets. where each router would have a gateway. the routers would talk to each other and they would speak OSPF or ISIS with the servers. This way I would move hosting onto loopback IPs on the servers and those loopback IPs would be advertised to the both routers through seperate networks.
Again everything would be Vlanned.
This has the advantage of getting rid of spanning tree which has caused issues from time to time. It would keep redundancy up and we could standardize on the routing daemon ran on the servers allowing all of the various OSs we run to have the same basic config for network redundancy. Where now each OS tends to have its own solution. This would make life easier from a config and troubleshooting point of view.
Does anyone know of a private Data Center with Satellite uplink/downlink connectivity in addition to Fiber?
I know the government depends on them for military purposes, but I was wondering if anyone is aware of a private, FCC liscenced data center with the capability to transmite/host data via satellite in case of disasters, remoteness etc. It seems complimentary for a data center but I haven't heard of it.
Is there any market research on this? What is a good source of information to find out about how many data centers there are, how much revenue they bring in, costs, etc? What is the data center bible?
I have a Sonicwall NSA 3500. Does anyone know if you can use it to create bandwidth charts of Network Objects (e.g. IPs or Groups of IPs)?
I am thinking something like Cacti, but I don't know the code to pull that info or if it's even technically possible.
which case is more preferred: a shared web hosting service with unlimited space/bandwidth, or a dedicated one with limited space/bandwidth?
View 4 Replies View RelatedHey can anyone tell me How the whole bandwidth thing works? like lets say..if i get 100k views a month, how much bandwidth would that take?
View 7 Replies View RelatedHow will I assign the bandwidth for a VE in virtuozzo power panel. I could not find any fileds that corresponds to bandwidth in the steps during creation. I could find how to restrict memory(vmguarpages) and disk space. But where will I assign the bandwidth that a VE can use.
Also what is this bandwidth rate 8kb/s or so?
Now I keep very close tabs on my site stats. Just tonight one of my sites suddenly showed 167gb for "traffic not viewed".
That was a jump from 5gb over the course of a day.
That was done in 604877 pages and 607138 hits.
Can someone explain to me what "traffic not viewed" actually is within AWSTATS.
Next I located where most of the bw went and it appears to be http code 206 showing 159gb. My latest visitor report for the addon domain only showed one ip with an odd couple direct requests. The referring site was my own cpanel but registered to a ip in India.
How can i locate where the leak is, latest visitors isn't being much help, I have since denied the india ip which i suspect was the problem maker. How can I prevent instances such as this in the future? Being a streaming video site I have the bw to spare but it is still a bit un-nerving.
Now on top of everything Virtuozzo isn't showing anything of the sort, what do i believe?
I like the LSN server company and have a server there that I plan to keep forever, they do a great job just that I am confused about their bandwidth. Also the prices aren’t exact!
Just wondering what everyone else here thinks about this:
So... LSN are doing a Q9300 server at the moment for $130 “ish” with 2TB of bandwidth. Now let’s say someone wants an extra 0.5TB of bandwidth they pay around $50 for it and if they want 1TB they pay about $95.
So you buy a server for $130 and get 2TB of bandwidth and also the costs of the hardware, space, power is covered for the hardware. Yet they charge nearly the same price for 1TB extra to a single server, which uses no extra space, hardware or power. Another thing is they charge $25 server to pool the bandwidth between your servers.
So what I see:
2 Servers 4TB B/W @ $260 + $50 (pooling charge) = $310
1 Server 3TB B/W @ $230
1 Server 4TB B/W @ $300
So as you can see from the above you can get twice the space, RAM, CPU and Power for only $10 more? Surely it costs them more than the $10?
Also my final point is LSN have a private network, that is not bandwidth monitored and your servers can use, I asked LSN if you could tunnel the traffic from one server to another, their answer was “yes if you have the technical knowledge to do so”... Well that would get rid of the $50 pooling costs... making it actually alot cheaper to get two servers.
I'm looking to get a VPS offshore (please look at my other threads/posts to learn why) primarily for email for 4 or 5 domain names (most of which I'd download to my desktop but would also backup on the server) as well as perhaps to run a virtual desktop through and/or store some data.
For ease of use (for ME at least), I'd install (or have installed) a CP and probably run Centos 5 or Debian as the OS on the VPS. I won't be running websites from the VPS and I'll be the only user.
I've seen offers of all types related to bandwidth but, in some countries, bandwidth is expensive and they offer little as a result. How do I determine how much bandwidth I need for what I want to do and how do I know what's too little?
I have a server with a 10Mbps connection. Is there a way to limit the connection of my VPSs?
Lets say I have 10 VPS on that server, is there a way to limit them to 1Mbps each? Or do something like:
VPS_01 = 0.5Mbps
VPS_02 = 0.5Mbps
VPS_03 = 0.5Mbps
VPS_04 = 0.5Mbps
VPS_05 = 1Mbps
VPS_06 = 1Mbps
VPS_07 = 1Mbps
VPS_08 = 1Mbps
VPS_09 = 2Mbps
VPS_10 = 2Mbps
And/Or is there a way to monitor the data transfer of each VPS (how many GB/month)?
I've found a colocation company that gives me as the default 1.544Mbps as the initial bandwidth. I think this is OK for me most of the time, the problem is their bandwidth isn't really 'burstable', and If I want to expand to more bandwidth, my options are something like buying another T1's worth muxed in for $250.
Is this strange? Old-fashioned? Should I be worried about this?
i'm not familiar with colo. help this noob out.
