I posted this in the wrong forum earlier, I am very sorry about that. I *think* I'm following the rules now, since I haven't advertised on here before, but have been an active reader until now, so let me see if I am doing this properly now.

5Mbs and 10Mbs...
Any providers looking for some half/full racks and 5Mbs and 10Mbs pipes (fully burstable on 100Mbs switches), contact me. Power, remote reboot, 7x24, etc.

I purchased some bulk space down here in Northern VA @ ServInt and have access to a Tier 1 backbone (dual oc48's out of data center).

Either direct sell/colo or I'm willing to talk about profit sharing if your in the virtual business.

Test traceroute to 205.177.13.2 and speed @

Thanks,

That ip goes to Cais/Ardent network, if I am not mistaken doesnt have anything greater than an OC12 on their network.

Maybe they need to update their map.

Or your using a diff provider?
[Edit]

quite good download speed.
From my server at VDI: 2.6 MB/s
From my server at NAC: 2.8 MB/s

So what are the carriers? Doesn't CAIS/Ardent has their own fibers?

cheers,
:beer:

It is on the Ardent backbone, which is an oc3/12 nation wide backbone. They leave ServInt via 48, which is my understanding, and head to Ashburn/MAE east to jump on their backbone, or hit pub/priv peering.

Speed is very impressive. And yes, the map needs some updating.

dektong, yes, from what I understand they have their own fiber network.

From ServInt's page:
*
ServInt's network is robust and unsaturated, with a dual redundant OC-12 architecture that backs our industry-leading uptime guarantee.


The speed is good though regardless of the connection. What kind of prices are you talking for colo?

Dan,

I'm in the ServInt building, I don't use their backbone, there a few different providers coming into that building.

As for pricing, please contact me privately with how much you need, I'd like to sell it in chunks of 5Mbs.

5Mbs with half rack. 10Amps. Figure around 240/meg.
10Mbs with full rack. 15Amps. Figure around 225/meg.

I just downloaded the file as a test.
I'm from europe and it's very slow for me not more tha 6KB/s when I can download with over 40KB/s from other american NOCs.

Not sure what the problem is with your slow speed. Are you pulling from the same network www.voodooweb.com is on? Or are you pulling from somewhere else?

I've got decent paths and times to you, see below:

Can you put something up on your side and I can pull from my backbone and see what happens.

Tom

No, I used a swiss cable provider to download, my domain is hosted in the US.
I just tried it a second time and it was faster around 20KB/s.
I have a server at NAC and at skynetweb and from there I have 40KB/s constantly. But as an example venturesonline.com and other Verio hosts are also very slow for me.
I don't think it would help if I put up something here because I have different up- and download speed.
I just said it is slow for me and maybe others who use the same provider as I but I don't put down your offer, it's not possible to offer a good connection to everyone.

Well i'm from Germany,
and i'm getting aroud 50kb/s which is normal to the US at this time.
Several speed tests from some other boxes in .eu, with more bandwith, showed an average of 300kb/s
