spec are:
Intel . 2,4 GHz
80 GB of HDD disk
1GB MB of RAM
Traffic-Unlimited
100Mbit Switch Port
Windows web os
from hosting-ie yes i know the bad reviews but i got my server in 2days
now i saw a good deal that for 12 euros extra get 2 * 100mbit
so i upgraded to a 2 * 100mbit connection as the server would be
used to let members from my forum download music / music videos [remixed] made by me and my other producer so 200mbit server will do nicely for my site
now when i got it it shows me two network connections each saying 100mbit
but only one of the connections is being used and the other is not in use
is there a way that i can use both at the same time or maybe use one for http/ftp and one just for ther server itslef

Feb 2, 2009I have read numerous reviews about hosting providers, and think that HostGator (either hatchling or baby) plans suit my needs. However I have a couple of questions:
1) As I'm based in the UK, is it going to be more expensive to pay for hosting that is based in the US? (I don't mean caused by exchange rate changes...I'm happy with their charges)
2) Is there a better way to pay i.e. monthly/annually or via debit card, credit card or paypal? (are there any conversion charges etc.)
Ideally I'd like someone who is paying for US hosting from the UK (with Hostgator if possible) to tell me how they do it and why they chose to do it that way.
Paying For Reviews
Sep 22, 2008I ran across something the other day that made me think about things. A host is offering to give you a $3.00 credit on the next invoice if you post a review. They list the site and all, and I was wondering what you guys thought about that.
On one hand, offering a credit, taints the review, or makes it biased. On the other hand, I know how important reviews are for a host.
Personally, I think it would be ok to ask for reviews, but I don't think it's ok to offer a credit or money for it.
Am I Paying Too Much For Colo
Aug 8, 2007I run a web hosting company by colocating my servers with a local data center. I think I am paying too much.
Right now I am paying $500/month per 1 mbps average transfer.
I've been shopping around and found other providers in the area that offer $1 per MB. Figuring 350 MB per month = 1 mbps sustained, that would be $350/month for the same bandwidth.
What I don't understand is how so many reputable competing web hosting providers offer hosting packages with numbers like 2000 MB/month for $399!
How can they offer accounts with this much bandwidth? I could never do this at the colo prices I'm getting.
Best Paying Webhosting Affiliates

View 6 Replies View RelatedIs Paying Annually (or More) For Hosting A Bad Idea
Jun 9, 2008I am considering signing up for a very well-received host on this site and around the net. It is DowntownHost. They have a promotion right now where you can get 25% off for life. They have tiered plans. So you if you pay for 1, 2 or 3 years upfront, for example, you will be paying *a lot* less per month than if you paid just monthly. Add in this 25% off promotion, and you can see some big savings.
Now, for most hosts that you haven't tried, I would say no way commit your money for a year. But DowntownHost's reputation precedes them so well, this could be an exception.
Plus, they have a 90-day money back guarantee where you would get all your money back if you don't like the service.
So my thinking is that I should no whether or not I am going to stick with a host within 90 days. That is plenty of time. But, then again, your money is tied up for 1, 2 or 3 years after that 90 days, and if something goes wrong, you are up a creek without a paddle. Plus, I have heard (in general, not with DowntownHost specifically), that your support level could decrease after your trial period if you have paid for an extended plan because, well, they have your money, so what do they care.
What are people's opinion on this?

Bandwidth :: 95th Percentile Billing, And Paying For 1Mbps?
Jun 3, 2008I just had a quick question, I have been using dedicated servers for a long time now, and I was just looking to host one of my own 1U servers that I have been using at home, now I had a simple question, but it seems to confuse me on what exactly do I pay at the end of the month.
I have read about the 95th percentile billing, and paying for 1Mbps.
I usually had 1000GB with my servers, simple, easy.
All I need to know is if I get 1Mbps, can I not go over that 1Mbps while backing up files, or hosting a game server? or is it that I have a certain amount of bandwidth because this is really confusing me.
