Leaseweb Three Month Review
1 ) Why this review
2 ) Ordering a Server
3 ) Things are running
4 ) DDOS
5 ) 100 mbit burstable @ 8mbit ...?
6 ) beeing d*cks
*Why This Review*
Originally the intention was to forget as soon as possible about what happened in the past three months and to move on with our new isp. To our regret, Leaseweb has besides the overall lack of service in the past months found it neccessary to kill our network connection without notice a day prior to the ending of our contract. Eventhough the impact is minimal, this gesture speaks for itself.
*Ordering a Server*
Having been a leaseweb customer directly and indirectly for several years in theyre budget segment we to be fairly honnest have rarely had any trouble ordering, nor have we had any trouble with the delivery of the purchased servers.
We experienced differently when ordering the following :
Dell Poweredge 1950
2x Quad Core Xeon L5320
16 GB DDR2
4 x 300GB SAS
raid 1+0
IP KVM card
1 x 100Mbps Full-Duplex
10 Mbps (95%) bandwith
SLA : Best Effort
OS : Debian
Ordered 09/30/2008 - payment sent immediatly
summary of the communication exchange ...
i guess this is the first time in ... 6 years since i do online business, that i ever got this kind of bad service.
I purchased a server from leaseweb, a dual xeons, on 13 nov 2008. They said that activation takes 7-9 business days. As weird as it seems i asked first if the delivery could be speeded up, and after 1 day they answer to my mail, that the delivery cannot be sped up, because that's that.
Don't get me wrong here, but as far as i know a datacenter operates 24/7, not with business days and holidays.
I sent a ticket in yesterday, and i got no replies, and as far as you see my server should have been delivered the LATEST, on 24 november.
It's 26, and they way you saw server from Leaseweb ... i saw it too.
Anyway, this is just my experience, and i might just have ran into a tech that did not eat his pizza today, and became grumpy, and thats why i have waited for 2 weeks for my server with no resolution.
Anyway, i am filing chargeback now on paypal, as i don't feel like getting the server anymore.
LE: My SSC username and password is not working anymore either, for some unknown reason.
Paypal dispute charged. ... All i can say is wow, i have been very fortunate so far, and ... i NEVER encountered such lousy customer support.
I've been with LW for about 2 years now, and have had 3 servers with them.
I recently ordered a big storage server, 2tb space and 4tb bandwidth, and canceled my 2 other servers.
The switch went like a dream.
My first server I had for over a year and a half, and what I noticed after awhile was that my server never went down, never a problem or network glitch.
There were a couple incidents in 2006, but one lasted around 5 minutes, and the other less.
After that, through the rest of 2007 and 2008, there have literally been no slowdowns, no network hiccups, and I am usually logged into SSH 24/7 so I notice.
All my users keep giving me a 10/10 score for the hosting uptime, and they are all very happy with how stable it really is.
As for support, I have used support maybe 5 times, two times to order more ip's, and the other times some random stuff about my server.
Usually I would expect an answer within 10 minutes, and that's usually the case, sometimes 30 minutes though.
But really I don't use support much to say how consistent it is.
But either way, I swear by LW. As long as I have a server or more, they will always be at LW, because all my stuff is never down, and I trust them now.
I'm not a direct client of Leaseweb, but it's not a secret that my domain is pointing at their servers.
I purchased a shared hosting plan from a reseller and since more than 43 hours my domain is down! My provider (the reseller) said he's waiting for Leaseweb support... according to my informations, in more than 24 hours they just made a reboot of the server!
I'm really bored of waiting with no chance of intervention! My provider says he can't do anything from his side, i can't contact Leaseweb cause i'm not a client... please, help, what can i do?
I need my site back online!
I ordered a leaseweb express server 4 box with windows server 2003 and have been running it, installed some software etc which worked out fine.
Anyways, I wanted to disable tcp/ip filtering which I did and afterwards it prompted me that I would have to reboot the server for the changes to take place, I clicked ok and it rebooted. Now I just can't connect with remote desktop, I tried everything.
I'm guessing it either shut down or didn't reboot properly? I tried sending an email to leaseweb support 2 days ago but still no shadow of any reply..
It says that I can reboot the server using the SSC but when I log in there, I can't really find any reboot option.
since 2 month i have a linux gold webspace package from the hoster leaseweb.
The speed of my webspace is very slowly from time to time.
Are the server from leaseweb faster?
My website: downarchive.com - it's wearez site and hosted leaseweb.
Yesterday. My server was downtime to today! We contact leaseweb and they said: "we delete my server" ... when my contract not yet finish.. (8/27/08 it's finish
My database - My source - script - website was delete!
I sundenly!
... Next. I trying contact leaseweb once more time but they didn't take phone !
What's are they doing? I didn't know!
I'm moving on to new pastures and I'm looking to cancel my leaseweb server. I've been through their main site, self service centre and can't seem to locate anything. Does anyone know how to cancel a server with them? I'd ask in sales chat, but each time I try they're offline. I'm worried it's getting closer to the renewal date and I'll be tied in for another month...
View 2 Replies View RelatedI just ordered an Express Server 6 with Windows server 2008 from leaseweb a 3-4 days ago and they have provided me with login information for the server
I can't really connect to it.. I'm using windows XP pro SP3, would this cause any problems? I also have a static ip and all.
It doesn't work from anywhere, not my house nor other places.
I'm guessing leaseweb screwed up on this one right? I have contacted their support but have had no reply in over 2 days.
I used to use leaseweb but I cancelled my subcribtion so I'm guessing the problem is elsewhere.
I've ordered server from LeaseWeb two weeks ago and still wait for the server setup. Its looks to slow for me - we are used to wait only a few hours for servers setup in datacanters in the US.
I'm afraid that such slow response will be also in response and level of the support. Do you think I should cancel this service and look for other provider in Europe? If yes please suggest such provider.
I've paid in advance by paypal for 3 month(~ 500 EURO). Do you think I will be able to cancel that payment?
Prepaid for 1 year: EUR 19xx.
HP server provisioned on Apr 18, but with wrong hardware: KVM not working, and RAID controller can't do JBOD.
After slow and lengthy email exchange, they agreed to swap it with a Dell that's supposed to fix these hardware problems. Price would remain the same.
Dell server provisioned on May 18, but again RAID controller can't do JBOD. And access to KVM is not provided.
And they want to charge me another EUR 19xx for this replacement server!
Immediately emailed them about these 3 problems, but it's been 4 days and haven't heard a word from them.
I am trying to host a website from my home computer. Currently I have it setup and it works and everything. I have my virus database updated, router update, firewall up and running, and I am ready for people to try hacking. But there is one thing I can do. I can't seem to get my website online. I go to whatismyip.com and try that IP address on both the computer I am hosting the website from and a different computer downtown but I can access it. I am currently using webs.com to tell people to download COMODO EasyVPN to access my website. But they have to download it first to be able to access my website. At one time I had to load it using the IP address I go to whatismyip.com but it took it six minutes to load and with the EasyVPN it only takes seconds. I am just wandering if my internet connection is just timing out and not letting anyone on. Is there a software I can use that works like COMODO EasyVPN but lets you type in my External/Public IP address and it go to my website. I mean my connection is slow but with the COMODO EasyVPN software it makes people connecting to my computer fast. I need a software that tunnels my connection to a clients computer.
I am using the XAMPP software to host my website!
not anticipating a ton of traffic at once
250 mb storage should do it
the main mb-intensive feature will be a thumbnail gallery whose links open jpgs of about 800 kb
I've had four different hosts in 1½ year, and I'm noe experiencing problems again with my current host, Lunarpages. Therefore, I really want to make the right choice this time. It would be such a pleasure to see my website run without any problems for more than just 8-9 months at a time...
Anyway, let me try to describe it. It's based on the Content Management System phpFusion. It has news, downloads, forums and screenshots. The site itself is c. 2 GB large (because of forum attachments and screenshots), the download section is c. 15 GB, and the site use up about 700 GB og bandwidth each month. In the forum, there's 100.000 posts, growing day for day, of course. We have 12.000 registered members, but we only have c. 50 members online at the same time -- maximum. Throughout a week, 2.000 members log in, but as said, they are never online at the same time. The members are mostly from Europe, but we do also have members from USA and Australia.
I've had both Lunarpages and Servage as hosts, but I have experienced problems with both of them. Servage has a daily bandwidth limit which I had overlooked, and the website constantly exceeded this. Lunarpages is very, very slow when using a MySQL DB.
i would like to put Glype proxy and some ads on it.
So which host should i choose.
I was considering TMZhosting for $5.99/month. 110gb/month.
How does that sound?
Any better hosts for around this price?
BTW i already registered a domaine at godaddy.com
I'm not familiar with hosting issues at all, and I'm planning to set up an affiliate webisite for online gambling. Hostgator, which after reading the posts on this forum has been my choice doean't accept affliate webistes.

I wanted input about what I have done wright and/or wrong configuring the VPS and cPanel/WHM? Please let me know what else I need to post (MX record, A records, DNS zone files, etc...)?
So far I have done:
- Initial set up of WHM
- Created a new account
- Added additional IP address t o the server
- Edited the DNS zone file
- Set up nameservers with registrar, godaddy.com

I have a small but somewhat popular space-history website. Very simple HTML that I typed into wordpad, but it has long pages full of photos. Since 2003, I've been using media3.net with their business-class Windows service.
A few weeks ago, mypages were hacked, and a one line script inserted that called an Adobe Flash file. Apparently this was a server-wise attack, not just my web pages. Media3.net cleaned this up, but now it has happened again.
This is bad, because Google blacklists my site, and folks on Wikipedia get upset because there are a lot of links to my site.
How are they breaking in to media3.net? I think I must change hosts, but I don't want to put my image-intensive site on overbooked hardware with limited bandwidth.
When you buy a website you have to transfer it's files to your host.how can i do that?

So, I switched off of one of my providers for my website about a month and a half ago (I won't mention their name). From my previous host I switched to HawkHost.
HawkHost was amazing throughout our entire month and a half stay. When we first went to them, they converted one of our domains into a subdomain and transferred all of the files for us and did a tremendous amount of extra work they didn't have to do. They were quick at responding and their servers were blazing fast. Unfortunately, they had to pack up our stuff for us and we had to leave due to a DDoS attack. But they didn't kick us out before trying some measures first to help prevent the DDoS attack. During the attack, my website still remained online and a lot of the traffic was being thrown out by the security measures they put in place for me for free. But the attack got through those security measures after 24 hours and took down their servers. Even after we left, the IP was still getting hit and they had to null-route the IP address. We do thank HawkHost for attempting to stop it, and we do not hold any grudges, infact we're very thankful they did what they did for us!
Overall Experience with HawkHost.com:
Support : 10/10
Network Speed : 10/10
Uptime (for the month and a half we were there : 10/10
Willingness to help : 10/10
Now! After HawkHost confirmed the attack has stopped, we set our website at a different host. I hope it doesn't get attacked again, because switching hosts isn't the top item on my Fun things to do this Friday. We switched to IGXHost.com
Our current experience (only been 24 hours):
Great support, we ordered in the middle of the night and they transferred our account within an hour! (It's not a small account either). The staff was very helpful and quick to respond which is amazing because it was 1AM. (HawkHost answered in the middle of the night too). Not really sure about anything else except their support, I will update you guys! But so far IGXHost and HawkHost are about the same quality in support (exceptional!).
Anyways! I'll keep you guys updated.
We here at Data Host Direct would like to thank the staff at IGXHost and HawkHost.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have 35 clients hosting on my dedicated server.
I am going to be ending my service as a host provider, and I need to transfer all of my clients to a new host.
Many of my clients sites were written 3-4 years ago in php while global vars was still off, and so many of the sites might not function correctly if I just pop them to a new host.
My first solution would be to bypass the php .ini file with a public_html/ based ini that would override any newer server settings.
Does anyone know of a good host that could take my clients? And also support the php version locally to the shared account?
I need a host that is reliable, and honest.
Am I going about this the right way?
I am open to any suggestions or advice on this.
I should probably add, all of my clients pay on an annual basis from $89-$140. None of my clients run video sites or any heavy media stuff.
