Is this the cost for the line?

-Rackcosts?
-Router Cost?
-Reboot Strip?
-Equipment?

I assume its free :)

Synergy,

This special deal is for the 100Mbps line only. All other costs (ie. rack space, APC switch, firewall, etc.) are excluded. We give you one port on our router. If you're running multiple servers, then you'll need to provide your own switch.

What are the prices for dedicated servers with you guys? Set-up fee? How much/mth ??

Thanks.

ps: any ip for speed testing you can give me?

.::DefCon::.

1 rack of rackspace, and a master switch? The deal sounds great, but I'm hoping you're not charging huge amounts for those two?

DefCon,

For this package, you can use one of our brand new Linux or FreeBSD server for an additional $500.00 each month. Otherwise, the monthly fees are listed on our site (ihttp://servers.colo.fm/) if ordered separately. As always, there is never a set-up fee.

Relevation,

The cost for rack space listed on our site (http://colocation.colo.fm/). It starts at $50.00 for 1U and $900.00 for a full rack / cabinet. You will need to provide your own master switch.

I mean the price for a dedicated, RedHat Linux server, how much would it cost me a month in total with your cheapest package?

In total! Because I don't completely get your pricing-system.
You do the calculating, please... ;)

So IN TOTAL, per month, cheapest solution, 1ded, RedHat

= ?

Thx

DefCon,

The monthly fee for a RedHat Linux dedicated server is $350.00 with 500GB of data transfer. Overusage is charged at $0.70 / GB.

Why do you offer such large quantities of bandwidth (330,000GB) for $30,000. If you paid that much for a year you could purchase a small co-lo center and a OC3 line (maybe?) you should only offer up 100Mbps

Deal sounds good, but what's the price for extra ips? :)

Revelation,

Additional IPs are free, but you'll need to show 80% utilization before another block of 128 IPs are issued to you.

Who was offering anything for $30,000? Did i miss something?

$2,000 * 12 = $24,000, and if you're referring to that, a oc3 is $55,000-$155,000/MONTH from most providers, and the center? Space costs just as much.

I thought this was the standard price when buying directly from Cogent.. .$2000/month for resold bandwidth. Am I wrong or are you getting a special deal from them?

1 GBPS for $20,000 to web hosting companies. They sell 100 MBPS lines for $3,000. This does not include rack space :) The deal sounds pretty good to me!

FYI -- It's now almost impossible to get a 100Mbps or GigE line directly from Cogent due to the new 3-1 push / pull restriction that they put in place recently. Cogent is now going after enterprise clients who needs bandwidth mainly for internal use rather than web hosting.

Many of our customers have come to us recently because they were declined by Cogent. You can always try to place an order with Cogent yourself and chances are that you too will be turned down as well.

ColoFM: i wasn't turned down by cogent, had no problems, it's also likely i got lucky on the phone i suppose. but hey, whats wrong with 3:1 out:in? They want balanced bandwidth over their network, otherwise their peering partners will get upset and cancel on them.

what is "chapter 11" anyhow? can someone point me to a info url or explain it? first time i've heard this term (or first time i've payed attention at least). :confused:
