After going through all the 'burst/nocster down' threads since March I am still thinking of taking a reseller account from unrestricted.net because they appear to be offering competitive price ($29.95/month for 20GB transfer plus $25 setup) among the adult oriented hosting companies/resellers. Also I need 10 dedicated IPs too and I'll be able to get them for $5/month (+ $5 setup) at unrescticted.net. Dedicated IPs for resellers costs much more elsewhere.

Is anyone here currently hosting with unresctricted.net? If yes, then how was their uptime like in last few weeks and months?

Isn't it in the same datacenter as Burst/Nocster? I know it's their adult hosting division, but I think it's still in the same facility.

Yes, unrestricted.net is the adult hosting division of nocster. Here is what their FAQs say:


Can I switch from BurstNET™ service to UNRESTRICTED.NET?

Virtual hosting, co-location, and dedicated servers may be changed, but it it is more involved then just a billing modification. Virtual accounts will have to be moved from your BurstNET™ shared server to shared servers specifically setup on the UNRESTRICTED.NET network. Reseller accounts cannot be moved, due to huge differences in sales format...ie...sales by the accounts vs. sales by the block of space/bandwidth. Co-Located servers would require IP address changes, to those used soley on the UNRESTRICTED.NET network.


So looks like they are in the same DC as nocster is but nocster has had a real bad run since March that is why I asked this question to know if the unrestricted.net customers are also bailing out of there like the nocster's customers have done in a large number or is the situation any different for unrestricted.net customers (particularly those on reseller plans)?
