Webkore.net Pings

Thought prices could be a little bit better, but then again I'm used to seeing bargain hosts advertised on WHT.

Still, I needed a fast VPS and they were located locally so I decided to give them a try. First thing I did was to check the latency.

..then I re-checked it.

PHP Code:

root@vps [/home]# traceroute  74.86.101.142
traceroute to 74.86.101.142 (74.86.101.142), 30 hops max, 38 byte packets

I know that this isn't a miracle provider, and pings from other locations vary from 35ms+ but the 0.9ms traceroute result made me smile.

If anyone else wants to, feel free to post a traceroute so I can at least know who will be getting the latest latency on this baby.
