DynaSpain,

I have been tolled by several GFY?s that you are very knowable with Servers and Networks.

So we are going to put our Money Where Our Mouth is. Why wouldn?t any good hosting company do this? Did you have any luck contacting Webair or any other Hosting Company? Hmm

We are going to give you the following sever for testing:

Server Specifications:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Premium Intel-based Server
Intel 3.06GHz Xeon
3 GB RAM - Memory Registered ECC Kingston
4 x 146 GB SCSI - Disk Storage (Ultra320 SCSI 15K RPM)
Raid 10 plus 1x 146 hot stand by
Bandwidth ? Tier-1 NTT/Verio Network
Dedicated 100Mbits Full Duplex Port
8 Dedicated IP Addresses
OS ? Linux Red Hat ES

We have registered the domain ?www.thenetworkchallenge.com? for your use. Please advise me on what DNS server you would like to use.

Side Note: Verio is currently research those trace routes (at this time they are saying it?s not there network) and will post a full report in this thread.


Regards,

Anthony

DynaSpain,

I have been tolled by ...

" tolled " ?????

I hope Michele R. is not around ... I got blasted for an extra " s" on month"s"

unfortunately anthony's right. i'm a very satisfied customer but even more inactive on the boards. it's been two months (already/barely, depends how you want to look at it) and support has been nothing short of great. goddamn, anthony woke me up the other day, calling me a couple times + email + icq regarding a problem that was already responded to by support earlier. i've never gotten that support at any host i've been with

good stuff for sure, but i wouldn't mind some extra sleep next time

yup.. definately great support.. and I'm a 'high needs' customer!!
(read that as: technically incompetent)

This is getting almost comical,You get what you pay for, Verio has ok bandwith but it surely not Top Line Tier 1 Bandwith. Any hosting provider can brag about how fast their "Tweaked" Server is. Shit i can put up a edge cached server that will blow the doors off yours but it really proves nothing about the networks the equiptment is on.

The server will not be tested...the network will....Anthony is offering this server to use from which tests will be ran.....just be a little patient....we're going to make this into a multiple hosting provider test challenge....soon I'll open a new thread explaining in detail what this test will include....and other providers will
be given the chance to enter aswell.....all providers will be tested by the same
criteria and tests and then we'll post results.....

this started with a nice idea....and we're still coming up with new ideas which
we will finaly compile into 1 big detailed challenged with multiple test executed at random intervals for 1 full week.

to be continued

ok, is there a conclusion to this thread re: download speeds e5hosting and other hosts?

very interesting, and not often evaluated when choosing a host.

[latinasojourn]

and servergenius i am impressed with what i see from you.

do you have an opinion here?
