What are the advantages and disadvantages to buy unmetered or fixed bandwidth dedicated?
For burstnet unmetered does it guarantee to have some good bandwidth or it can be very very slow at peak times?
I can find about the same price almost 2TB/month or 10mbps unmetered.
I was looking at a VPS plan that offered unmetered bandwidth on a shared 100mbit/s port. I thought it was a bit suspicious because it was at a very low price--but would this be what it means?
100mbit/s converts to 0.125 megabytes per second
= 7.5mb/min
= 450mb/hour
= 10,800mb/day
~ 334,800mb/month
= 334.8gb/month
Would that mean that I would be getting less than 334.8gb of bandwidth a month, but it's just filtered through to make sure I don't go over?
I got a question about shared unmetered bandwidth offerings. Currently we specialise in Dedicated Unmetered bandwidth offers but also offer metered.
we see an increase in demand for shared unmetered, with some minor guarantees of troughput. Much in the style of FDC servers. We are toying with the idea, to add a shared unmetered service thats overbooked 1/4 (100 mbit) or 1/6 (gigabit).
The questions.
1.
Are these overbooking rates reasonable? it looks like other companies roughly have these overbooking factors.
2.
What kind of hardware should be bundle with such an offer? obviously its the bargain hunter category (no pun intended) that we would try to appeal to. Would that mean generally lower end servers like ATOMs?
i want to know any datacenter that offer 10 Mb or 100Mb port unmetered cogent bandwidth.
Do you know any?
It is for an image hosting file service.
i finally ordered my first dedicated server -previously i had a vps. I ordered at theplanet.com an unmetered 10 mbps - dedicated server but i am now confused, about how much bandwidth 10 mbps really represent?
10 mbps = 3.300 gigas?
20 mbps = means how many gigas?
and the 100 mbps = means how many gigas?
I have a alexa 12.000 site with adult videos that is getting more and more traffic, thats why i decided to get unmetered but stupidly i thought 10 mbps was a lot of more than only 3.3 teras : ( so 20 and 100 mbps means how many gigas?
I am going to pay at ThePlanet for this 10 mbps unmetered connection $200 plus $ 109 for the server pentium 4 512 ram.
BurstNET or FDCServers for unmetered bandwidth?
BurstNET or FDCServers for unmetered bandwidth?
I'm talking about the 100mbit shared bandwidth, who would you reccomend for this fdc or burstnet?
Also do you have any other solutions for cheap bandwidth as I'm trying to open a file hosting website like rapidshare and I'm looking for the cheapest bandwidth.
i need unmetered bandwidth about 100mbps (may need to upgrade) where do you recommend

Has anyone been trying hosting with Exmasters.com?
I am hosting a few websites with my host, powweb.com (shared hosting). Now I am thinking to go for an adult xxx website, and my host is not ready to host an adult website with them, and thus, I am looking for a new host now.
Things are:
1. I have very little knowledge about server management, as till now my shared host was doing everything, so I may need a host who offers a completely managed hosting, including backups, security, etc (just as a shared host would do).
2. I need a host that allows extreme adult contents.
3. The site will be a new one, but I am planning to go for offline marketing and hoping that I will get a good amount of visitors. Also the site will offer online movies. Taking these things into consideration, I am thinking that I may need a host that offers unmetered bandwidth.
I would like to get some tips from you guys, and if any of you know a good host, thanks for letting me know as well.
Looking for a dedicated unmetered server to stream movies and audio for over 500 visitors a day. Anybody knows any place that is good?
Also, what kind of hardware specifications would be OK for me - in terms of speed and memory? And would we be OK with a 10mbit port or 100?
Would I survive on a dedicated server with a shared bandwidth?
Im running my own file host, and in the past few days its just blown up in traffic. I current have "Intel Core2Quad Q9650" package from Limetone. 3ghz Quad, 8GB Ram, 1TB HD, 10TB BW.
I need something that has either unmetered or 30TB+ bandwidth. It should be on 100mbps lines too.
The closest thing I have found are FDCnetworks
Any other companies like FDC with 100mbit shared unmetered bandwidth?
I need a shared 100mbit unmetered bandwidth server like FDC.
But i am looking for a better company that offers management aswell.
My price range is $200/month where FDC fits in.
How I Fixed My Exim Was Allow Perl Access To Other Users Besides Root
chmod 755 -R /usr/bin/perl
Restart Exim
/scripts/restartsrv_eximstats
Issue Was Resolved.

I have a Sonicwall NSA 3500. Does anyone know if you can use it to create bandwidth charts of Network Objects (e.g. IPs or Groups of IPs)?
I am thinking something like Cacti, but I don't know the code to pull that info or if it's even technically possible.
I am trying to have vps because I have 130 websites in shared server.
My current reseller account has WHM/Cpanel, WHMReseller installed. - no ssh access
I think need VPS + Unmetered shared reseller(currently have one) for 2 reaseons.
1. backup/restore
2. Disk space
1. backup/restore =======================
I had a problem with hosting company, so I had to move all 130 websites in 12 hours without ssh access in both old/new server. (can you imagine?)
New server admin helped me, but their response were so late, so I want to do it my self.
Also, I need one more server that can immediately be switched if hosting company blowup everything. (hosting will be my life line)
2. Disk space =========================
All 130 websites are smaill size cloned websites (1mb~20mb) because I sell cloned websites with hosting.
I have unmetered space/bandwidth reseller plan now, so I can provide 5bg-10gb space for each customer. (they use only 1-20mb though)
If I have vps(15-30GB plan), I won't have enough space if, some clients really use 5GB space. So I may move clients who use big space to my unmetered shared reseller account.(currently have one)
In other words,
vps- many small sized websites
unmetered - big sized websites (a few)
I may need only one vps, but it's too much overselling if I give 5GB to each client. (that's why I have to connect vps to my current hosting).
Am I wrong?
I have no idea how to make this concept works.
I see many ebay sellers who sell unmetered hosting, and they have 2-5 datacenters and backup servers....etc.
Also, how can people generage a bunch of ips? Is it one of the function in vps?
Last question- Does it back up all sub-account if I do full backup reseller's cpanel?
what is Metered and unMetered ?

I looked at Iweb and Choopa, but I am trying to see if there are better, more economical, options out there.
what kind of incoming and outgoing bandwidth should i be able to consume from FDC?
Im getting about 60KB down and 500KB up.
further since i havent been able to hold the number of radio slots I used to I feel like something is not right, i seem to get normal ping and traceroute but noticed that an mtr router displays some sort of odd results, am I reading this correctly?
seems like there is always a couple of hosts with a ton of packet loss. how can i tell if there is some kind of problem here? the server worked great for 6 mos and now it just seems like it never has come back .......
I've currently got around 10 dedicated servers for the MMORPG we run, 3 of which act as patch distribution servers / download servers.
The patch distribution servers are fairly low spec (Single CPU, 1-2GB RAM, 250GB HDD), but connect through a 100MB unmetered port - all of these are currently in the EU.
I'm now looking at a USA patch server, but not sure where to look. The only provider that springs to mind is FDC Servers but not sure how good they are these days. I don't mind if the provider is on the East or West coast (or even Central), but they must provide 100MBps unmetered (shared is fine).
Currently paying around $100-$200 for each other patch server, so would ask that $200-250 is the limit.
if anyone can suggest a couple reputable companies based in Canada, that offer a dedicated server with 100 mbps unmetered bandwidth. Budget is ideally around 1500.
(I posted a while back about 60TB/month, and got some great replies, that was a different project)
Someone mentioned corenetworks.net in one of the posts, so I went to look at them, then checking out the options, it got me thinking about this, what is the difference/what does it mean?
Unmetered Bandwidth Options vs. Metered Bandwidth Options?
Unmetered 3Mbps/month +$0.00
Metered 1,000GB/month +$0.00
So, are they saying that I can get 3Mbps 24/7 for an entire month for no extra, or 1,000GB total transer at? Mbps (I would assume 10Mbps or 100Mbps depending on the setting.)?
Ok, so I am trying to answer my own question...
Let me just ask it. What's the difference?
They have an Unmetered @ 10Mbps for $350.00/month, but come on... Is it "really" unmetered? (Just like those shared "unlimited transfer" type accounts, where they hack you off at the knees when you go past their invisible "unlimited" number.
What is the diference between metered and unmetered bandwidth. I was looking a one provider that I will not name and they have 1Mbps metered for $109 and then they offer 10Mbps unmetered for $139. To me unmetered sounds like a better deal. Is there something that I am not knowing or seeing between the two?

View 14 Replies View RelatedDo the FDC 100Mbit Unmetered servers use shared bandwidth or dedicated bandwidth?
Because i was looking at softlayer and they charge $2,000/month for a 100Mbit uplink port, yet FDC have this for $159/month.
Is it because fdc's are using shared bandwidth?
Also, does FDC's 100Mbit servers mean you can use as much data as the port allows per month so you'll never be charged excess data?
