Quality Texas Providers?

Feb 1, 2008

Used ThePlanet for ages and well not to impressed with them in the past 6 months. Not reading tickets fully is a big issue or not following instructions. Response times to tickets absolutely unacceptable with some being 3-4 hours others ranging in the days and most requiring calls to get responses. It really seems like they're more focused on their dedicated server market.

So any suggestions on quality providers for people in need of a few cabs and 45mbit or so and want actual decent response times and knowledgeable staff who read tickets fully?

Some applications are of the ping sensitive nature while others are just your normal web, mail, misc services. So things like cisco guards available and friendly with regards to fixing bad routes would be nice.

I've heard people suggest Colo4Dallas but are there any other suggestions?

Texas Co-Location

May 22, 2007

With my New York location settling in, I'm now looking for a new host to Co-Locate with in Texas.

We host game servers, so I'm looking for premium bandwith. We currently host with softlayer, and I couldn't be happier, but we really need to cut the costs of renting hardware.

I know that Texas has numerous options for co-location, but before I search through hundreds of sites, I thought I would ask here first.

I'm trying to build a list of 5-10 hosts so I can send off for quotes.

Anyways, here are the details of what I need, any assistance is always appreciated.

Looking for:

2U (2 x 1U servers)
2-3 Amps Per Server
6mbps

Ideal Price: $150/month - $300/month

I figure this is a safe price range in Texas

Taxes On Bandwidth In Texas

Jul 12, 2007

For those of you in Texas, do you have to pay sales tax on bandwidth if you buy it directly from a bandwidth provider (e.g. Cogent, AboveNet, Global Crossing, etc.)?

From my understanding, the sales tax rate is 8.25% on bandwidth bought directly from a bandwidth provider in all the big cities in Texas?

Dedicated Servers In Texas

Sep 12, 2008

I am currently with The Planet with the following configuration - Dual Xeon 2.4 - SCSI, 1 GB RAM, 73 GB 10K RPM SCSI/SAS HDD. But it lag spikes when I run a Counter Strike server on it, I don't know if it's there network or something wrong with the hardware.

I had a Pentium 4 2.8 ghz from Calhost and it never lagged, and keep in mind this is a Dual Xeon. I have been trying to figure out the problem, but no luck yet. My question is - what other companies in Texas sell dedicated servers?

Does anyone know what could be causing the lag spikes? Or had a similar incident with The Planet. I don't know if it's there network.

Dallas Texas Datacenters

Apr 7, 2008

Does anyone know any information about the following datacenter is Dallas Texas:

2323 Bryan St

2020 Live Oak

We are getting a circuit to one of these two locations, and would like to find a bandwidth provider on-net that can offer us IP transit. We are in need of mainly incoming bandwidth only, and would like to do some trading if possible. A hosting provider would be an ideal match as they should have excess incoming bandwidth to spare.

Qwest Texas Network Experiences

Jun 5, 2007

Can anyone comment on how their experience has been with the Qwest network in the Texas region? It seems by looking at their network map that they have many directly links to other cities coming out of Houston which is a surprise to me as everything seems to come from Dallas on other networks.

Can anyone comment on pricing? What can you get a FE or GE commit from Qwest for?

Texas VPS W/ Internet Relay Chat (IRC) Allowed

Jan 19, 2009

My desired specs are 512MB-1GB RAM, smallest HDD possible, and 1 IP. CPU usage will be pretty low.
IRC has allowed and it needs to be a datacenter in Texas. The datacenter can't be ThePlanet. DDoS protection is a huge plus.

Quality Webhost

Feb 8, 2009

I'd like to ask for some help in choosing a webhost. I want to host a website that will be a sales database. It will use a MySQL database and PHP. I will not need large amounts of disc space (I can't estimate exactly but probably less than 10GB) and relatively low amounts of bandwidth. What's important is a high uptime and security and quality bandwidth. I am very sceptical with all the webhosts offering unlimited services since I know they are overselling. Do you know of any quality webhosts suitable with the above characteristics?

Quality Of Utropicmedia's Service

May 6, 2008

After researching a lot of the webhosts that are more geared towards quality in a shared server, I've narrowed it down to a few different providers. I haven't been able to find much in the way of reviews on Utropicmedia and wanted some input on them. I see they have phone support, not sure if they have a ticket system also. They don't have a forum on their site to check feedback either.

I like the fact that their servers are close to me and the majority of my customers (Detroit). They also seem to be concentrating on quality, so I'd like to find out more about them. Any first hand input would be appreciated.

The short list also includes Medialayer, Precision Effect and Rochen. I want reliability and fast page loads for my customers. Medialayer seems to be about twice the price for equal bandwith and disk space. The others are quite comparable. I'm sure there are several more that would do fine, but I decided to quit looking and choose from this group.

Quality VS Quantity - Which Do You Choose

Apr 24, 2008

I've always heard of clients where their old host suffers from frequent downtimes or their site is always slow, etc kind of problems.

One of the main reason is that lots of people are keen to sign up with host who offers massive amount of disk space and bandwidth at very low prices.

This is actually called "Overselling", as the host will try to limit cpu and ram resource usage. This is normally only written in their Terms Of Service (TOS).

As such, I would like to conduct a poll on "Quality VS Quantity - Which do you choose?" to understand the mentality of consumers today.

Best Banwidth Deal (with Quality)

Dec 14, 2008

We've browsed/searched a lot these last years and I believe fdcservers has the best bandwidth deal, with stability and a good service.

We've been searching the last days and found some other companies (ex 10TB.com). Are there any other companies that would offer something as 'good' as fdc regarding bandwidth?

10TB says they use softlayer's DC but it seems they don't use their network (got that information on a chat with SL's sales) so in my opinion there is no benefits to be on SL's DC if we don't use their network which is really good/stable. We've found that 10tb.com is a new company and their site has 404 and incorrect contact e-mails address which made we 'quit' the signup process.. (and because it is hard to 'trust' a new company with lot of bandwidth - and errors on their website - when there are others on the market for a long time that couldn't offer it).

What do you think about 10tb.com? Other options? What about fdc? Is it worth going with them to host streaming ? We need as much bandwidth as possible, but we also need quality.

Equinix Quality : DC2 Versus DC3

Dec 21, 2007

I visited the colo space (1 cabinet) we obtained through an Equinix reseller. There was some confusion as initially we were going into DC2, but they put us into DC3 as that's where they had the space (they have a lot of cages in both DCs).

In the past, I had visited DC2 and it's clear the facility was purpose-built for Equinix. You can tell just by looking at it from the outside, but also inside.

Driving up to DC3 (on Chillum Place), I was first surprised to notice glass windows on the outside of the building (they have the reinforced walls inside of that I was told).

Apparently, the building was some other company's datacenter or offices, which Equinix then refitted their standard-build datacenter inside the building. They also have different man-traps (like a rotating door) compared to DC2, raised flooring (which is not used I was told), and lower ceilings.

I drove around the DC3 building, and the other half of it appears to be some other company's datacenter (based on the generators on the roof). Any idea who that is?

Is DC3 the same quality as DC2? It didn't quite "feel" like the quailty of DC2, but that's just an impression and not based on any empirical evidence. It's also a bit further out there, while DC2 and its new "siblings" (DC4/5) are all adjacent to each other (on Filigree Court).

With the reseller we are using, most of their bandwidth in DC3 cross-connects to their network equipment in DC2, and that's where they peer. That's another thing that makes me feel like DC3 is quite secondary.

Are my feelings unfounded, or should I push our reseller to find a cabinet for us in DC2?

Dedi For A High Quality VPN Provider

May 19, 2009

I'm about to start a premium VPN service provider, i've found that far too many people in this area are content with providing 100kb/s download speeds and poor reliablity, and think I can provide something better.

I'm currently evaluating options for the hosting i'll need. Initially i'd only be looking at 1 or 2 high bandwidth servers from a quality provider(in the US), on a monthly contract - obviously with the capacity to increase this as and when business becomes a little more established.

I've looked at 10tb.com, and a few uncapped 100Mb providers (Sharktech and others). Obviously I can see the 10tb cap on a gigabit port being a potentially expensive issue - how do they measure this bandwidth? I've noticed that several companies are now only counting the upload which would help me alot, is this standard? Additionally, and considering that i'm specifically NOT going to permit p2p usage in my TOS, would I be correct in assuming that providers will have no issue with this form of service over their network?

Finally, to the more experienced folk here, who would you choose... and why?! Given that i'm marketing this as a premium service, cost isn't the most important factor, but obviously it is one of the considerations.
