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

Should Location Of Host = Location Of Targeted Visitors?

Sep 19, 2008

Just a question about hosting your site in the same country where your main targeted visitors is located. It is my belief that I should host my sites in the same country where I the targeted visitors are. Am I correct in saying this??

So..
US Focus Site should be hosted in the US
Canadian Focus Site should be hosted in Canada
And UK Focus Site would be hosted in the UK??????

Does IP Address Location = Server Location

Nov 6, 2009

I have a VPS and when I signed up I was told by the provider that the server was based in a UK datacentre. However, I've just done a search on the IP address for my VPS and it comes up as 'The IP address is assigned to France'.

Does this mean the server's actually located in France?

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?

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?

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.

Co Location.

Sep 11, 2007

what does it mean?

right now i am under the impression, i can buy a server from dell or so for say $1200 - $3000, and then pay like 20 - 50 to have them placed at a datacenter with a dedicated internet line and all that?

if that is true, can i take my equipment at home (making sure there the right size box, obviously im guessing , dc's do not take full towers to be placed), and send them out?

I am thinking that this way, I can load linux, or whatever OS on it, install whatever extensions I need, do whatever, and have a dedicated server to my self for less then 50$ /month.

What happens when it fails? do they send it back to you? i would like that, since I can recover my files and stuff.

People dont do this because:
1) parts are not warrantied
2) its too costly and time consuming to load them with control panels and security software/hardware.

Co-Location

Apr 8, 2007

I have some idea of what it is, I make contract with a data center and have my server located on their place.

What I need to know about is, how does all of the fees work, and what does some of this stuff means?

- 1u vs. Full rack vs. cabinet vs. tower

- BGP network

- what is Bandwidth billed on port speed or on 95th percentile.

- Tier 1 and Tier 2, and the Level 3 label

- Amp Needed

- Installation (Is this the process of connecting the server with wires and power, or is
this also software installation?)

- What other costs are there?

Thank you anyone who can help. If you have an article with this kind of info, I be happy.
I will try to find this info on my own, but I might not find everything I need to know so I am also asking it from here.

Regards,
Hsb.

How Important Is Location

Oct 11, 2009

I live in Turkey. I'm gonna buy a reseller package from Hostgator which is located in Texas. I will mostly make websites in English language for business(affiliate websites) but I decided to make 2 websites in Turkish language for a hobby of mine. Should I buy hosting from a company in Europe or can I still go with Hostgator? I really like Hostgator's package but how much disadvantage would there be in terms of speed? Would people be able to tell by speed whether the server is close or not? Is there a way to test it? All my friends' computers have a speed around 100kb download per second.

Add Network Location Over VPN Possible

Jul 6, 2009

We have two servers, one in our office, and the other in a colocation. There is a site-to-site VPN connection between them. I want to add the server in the office as a network place/drive to the server in the colocation, but I can't get it to work. I tried putting the local ip of the server in the office, didnt work.

Then I tried OFFICESERVERNAMESHARENAME and that didnt work either.

Office Server Local IP: 192.168.0.202
Colocation Local IP: 192.168.1.2

IP Resolving To A Different Location

Apr 7, 2008

I have a local server named as 'EPBX' which monitors the working of the telephone system and makes their log entries. Recently its HDD partition got crashed due to which it was formatted and had re-installed Windows server 2003 after which I am facing some problems as given below:

- The IP address assigned to this server is 192.168.100.2. I am able to ping the IP but unable to take the console of the software from some other local PC.

- Also when I try to trace the IP using the tracert command first it resolves to the ISP's router and then to the server. But the router is not at all asigned a local IP. I have assigned a global IP to it. (Screen shot of the same has been attached)

- It would be very difficult for me to change the IP address
