your pricing seems good but the ping from germany (with ADSL) is not that good: 739ms

Minimum = 722ms, Maximum = 771ms, Mittelwert = 739ms
Anyway, the prices are really good, I am sure you will get much USA-customers ...

good luck

Hi Globes.

I went to www.traceroute.org and I found great response times from Germany.
http://www-zorn.ira.uka.de/cgi-bin/trace.cgi?k2.synapseglobal.com < 179ms

http://www.fh-wolfenbuettel.de/rz/service/Traceroute.html < 170ms

http://www.work.de/provider/ < 177ms

I looked at several more but I am unable to find anything slower than 180ms from Germany to our servers in Portland, Oregon.

Thank you for your interest!

well I did a traceroute from my home to your server.

I am using ADSL. perhaps that is the reason. But to some other server located in the USA I have 200 and even less.

1) how easy would it be to install php and MySQL?

2) what type of tech support do you offer? (please be honest)

synapse
11-09-2001, 04:34 PM
We will install php and mysql for you. There is no charge for this.

As for support, we have live staff 7 days a week answering the phone. M-F until 7:30pm PST and S-S until 5pm PST. The NOC is staffed 24/7 and dedicated/colocated server customers get a special pager number that gets you a tech 24/7.

Thank you!

When I traceroute them from the west coast of Canada on cable I got a minimum of 23ms and a max of 103ms

Not bad :)

on your dedicated servers, your terms of service seem to prohibit this, but I couldnt tell if that just applied to your virtual accounts.

Hello,

Yes, adult content is allowed. The dedicated server contract is different than our hosting contract.

Thank You
