i was trying to search for reviews on time warner cable and was not able to find any. I would like to hear from ppl using it like what is the quality of bandwidth and what is their pricing structure.
View 14 RepliesI am thinking of either colocating my server for $50 at colostore.com or may be hosting at site in my office by getting business class internet from Time Warner i.e. 768k UPload and 10mbps download, do you think thats a good speed for hosting one ecommerce site.

Hung , from 3inetwork told me, Netriver has a good package colocation, so he sent me Netriver Sales email address via PM.
I sent an email to Adam Viera from Netriver describing what i needed. Surprisingly, he gave me such a good price for 2000 G Premium bandwith, Cpanel + Fantastico Installed (195 dollars).
Then i was about to buy hardware from Apaqdigital.com, Chong, thesalesman sent me an invoice and unfortunately he couldn't process the CC unless i sent him the scan of my cc both sides, passport and driving license (I'm from Australia), which i did, and after that he sent me another email saying that he cant process 3rd party credit card, and he didn't believe me i own the credit card. I was thinkin how the **** does he know, and why he bothered to ask me to send my cc details and everything. even though i sent everything he asked. Bugg**!
I was desperate, then i emailed Adam from Netriver, and asked him where he usually get the server from, and i explained to him Chong blowed me off and it means my Site will be down in about 3 days. He replied back to me ask me what i needed and he can buy for me through SiliconMechanics. I was so happy.
Last Saturday the server arrived, Adam from Netriver emailed me saying that my server was already there and the Tech Support wiring it for me, Jed From Netriver helped me to install Cpanel and Fantastico Until 11 o'clock at night, and before he left; he said "Email me if you have any Issue" OMG... im very happy with the support....
and Now my site running perfect and smoothly
i give them 9/10
it will be 10/10 if they can provide live chat support!
Go Netriver!
I switched from Resellerzoom to wiredtree with a vps. I also have accounts with liquidweb and softlayer. All are reliable and uptimenot an issue but as far as getting help Wiredtree is just far above.
I have been there now only a few months but so far so good. If your not a real tech person wiredtree is your best bet. ANd the email response time wow!! I tried to call them once but by time I picked up the phone and waiting on hold for about 2 minutes my email was already responded to.
I am sure there are thousands of good host out there but I know on this boards when i looked no one would tell me whichto go with , they all said it depends on this and that. What I am saying is if your looking for a good VPS and your not a technical person go with Wiredtree save yourself the headache I had with others that are great host but just not ready to deal with us stupid people who dont know how to "harden" a server .
BirdHosting - worth my time to write a review
I just completed my latest site launch with BirdHosting.com and I have to say Mike knows how to operate this hosting company. I've been with ourinternet.us (spare me ever again---please), HostMySite, and GoDaddy. Godaddy was my latest host until I moved it over to Bird. Godaddy didn't give me much flexibility with their VPS windows hosting plans. I needed more then 10 gigs on a windows host.
A buddy of mine referred me to Mike from BirdHosting and Mike had me up and going before I even gave him a credit card. He really wanted to impress and meet all my needs. I now have a 50 gig / 1gig windows vps for a super great monthly price. I enjoy the personal attention I get when something goes wrong.
BirdHosting also helped me pick out two servers for where I work at too. Mike spent over 45 minutes on the phone with me answering questions I had. Godaddy would NEVER do that.
Anyways - I'm enjoying super FAST up time since going over to the birds nest. worth a look at if you are considering hosting companies.
Has anyone worked with the cable companies on internet connections for hosting? Eg. Comcast, TW.
I worked with a sales rep for Comcast a few years ago on a solution for our offices. He worked out a line that would give us 3+mbits up speed for less then the price of a T1.
It also included a dedicated line to our offices. Would using a cable line be a bad idea for a hosting connection?
I'm having a hard time finding a source that has the Supermicro CBL-0084L splitter cable in stock. Any suggestions where I could get my hands on about 10 to 20 of these at a reasonable price? Maybe more if the price is right.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have had a few Colo and Dedicated servers but I have decided that the traffic I am getting on my sites warrants using a large setup so I have four servers that I need to colo to one site.
My major question is that when I go colo they generally only supply one Cat 5 cable and what is the best setup to have for a switch/router? Generally you get enough IP addresses to have one per server so my guess is that you can just plug the switch/router in and away you go?
I am going to have one server as a load balancer then two as the load balanced pair and then a database server.
SoftLayer recently added TW Cable to their BGP mix. However, it is Time Warner Cable, while the ones I usually see is TW Telecom.

Perhaps something like this:

What distributor are you guys using for cable management?
I know typically at least CAT5 cable is to be used for FE or Gig-E Ethernet links, but can CAT3 cable be used at short distances? I know there is little to none cost difference in the cable price, but I am only allowed to used the preinstalled cable at this location which is CAT3 which is what Verizon typically runs for telephone cables.
View 14 Replies View RelatedSo we have 10 racks of mess in our custom colo cage. Each rack currently has 20+ servers, most with dual network interfaces hooked up, most racks with two switches and 3+ apc remote power strips per rack. Each rack is an APC 4 post unit [url]
We have no cable management trays and currently tie up cables with velco and zapstraps, trying to keep power cables to the left and cat5 cables to the right. Unfortunately, even with all our effort, it's really turning into a wall of cabling that is basically insulating each rack and causing a temperature issue (or the potential for one at least).
Even worse, we want to add in KVM over IP hooked up on nearly every server. While I see the great benefits of the KVM, I can't see how on earth we are going to make the cabling work out!
I have a Linux Server (CentOS 4.4) running, it has two network cards.
1. Onboard 100MBit (eth0), uses DHCP to obtain IP, this card is the only one that is able to connect to the internet.

Subnet: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.1.1
Bcast: 192.168.1.255
2. PCI Gigabit card (eth1), uses static IP, and is connected to my Windows machines via a CROSSOVER cable.
IP: 192.168.2.2
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: NONE

Im sure its just a few lines I need to change somewhere, just not sure where?
I put this in the co-location section since I am co-locating a server that I host a few Websites on. The server is located in the Pacfic Northwest at a hosting company out there. As you may know, this is a "more remote" area of the United States.
Today, the company lost all Internet access when a Fiber optic cable went down. Not only was my stufff down but the entire hosting company was down. In 10 years of doing Internet development, I have never seen this happen to any hosting company I have worked with no matter how good or bad they were. On top of that, it happened one time last year as well.
According to my co-location provider, the problem happened a long way up stream. SO far that the lines cannot be backed up. Is this true? Could a fiber optic cable fail at some point where it cannot be switched over to another line?
I don't know if I should I believe that or not. It would seem to me that it is a matter of money and they may not have a back-up system in place if the pipe goes down. Is it possible? Who's fault is it?

I already rebooted httpd, exim, and imap server, and the server itself too.. and problem stills.
I got report from webceo that I have some issues. May someone help me fix this?
DNS Lookup: 0.22 sec
Connect time: 0.33 sec
Host ping: 0.10 sec
That mean too slow with the other sites!
I can't get access to a certain site. I always get the page with:
network time out - server at *** takes to long to respons. More people have noticed this and apparently it only happens to people with certain specific providers. And not all the time. Some times they DO get access eventy to they belong to the same ISP. So I guess an ISP isn't blocking access to it otherwise it would be permenantly/The site administrator insists that certain ISP's are blocking his site. He's hosting it on his own server. The domain belongs is registered at namecheap.com.
If an ISP is blocking this site (if that's possible?), that would lead to that 'network timeout' page wouldn't it?
What is the most likely reason for getting a timeout page anyway?
I have a dedicated server specs: AMD 3500+ 64 Bit CPU, 1 GB Ram, 160 GB Sata Drive. For 1 month, CPU load average reaches 40-50 value. This happens about 5-6 times in a day. When I stop httpd service for 30 seconds everything goes normal. I think this is not a DoS attack because it comes systematic, I dont believe no one makes this regularly except bots.
Maybe its a system service or a cronjob but it stops when I turn off httpd service?
How can I be sure about what's making this regularly load?
I also did set up a script which mail me when load average of system goes crazy and restart httpd service. But instant restart is not working to stop load increase.
The server is going down from time to time, every 12 days or so the site hosted there is no longer accesible, everything starts with the site slowing don and down and then is not longer reachable, what we do is to request a power cycle, and with this we start all over again till next power cycle, so on so on, of course, here are my server details and more info on this:
- MySQL - 5.1.41-3ubuntu12.10
- Apache - 2.2.14-5ubuntu8.4
- PHP - 5.3.2-1ubuntu4.9
- operating system: Ubuntu Server 10.04 LTS
After some time emailing the support guys to barely check about what's going on, we received an email with a few things:
1.- found a few errors that likely would cause issues with Apache. The first error is:
[Mon Feb 04 05:03:10 2013] [error] mod_fcgid: fcgid process manager died, restarting the server and the next error is:
[Mon Feb 04 14:32:34 2013] [error] server reached MaxClients setting, consider raising the MaxClients setting ...
Both these errors seem to indicate that you have a process that is running out of control on your server. We were unable to determine what script on your site is running caused your connections to be maxed out however it does appear that before these errors were generated there was a WordPress plugin referenced in your access logs...
2.- Additionally during our review we did find that your error log for mercadodedinerousa.com is 45 GB's which is excessively large and can cause problems when Apache is trying to write a such a large file.
3.- The majority of the errors being logged are:
[Wed Feb 06 12:12:31 2013] [error] [client 200.76.90.5] Options FollowSymLinks or SymLinksIfOwnerMatch is off which implies that RewriteRule directive is forbidden: /var/www/vhosts/mercadodedinerousa.com/httpdocs/index.pl, referer: [URL]

does it mean rsync will just check and copy the newer folders and files from the last copy?
