did i miss somthing ?

thank you

Their datacenter is actually Cybercon here in STL.

I see:IMPORTANT NOTE: We charge the bandwidth based on the AVERAGE usage in a month, NOT the TOTAL usage like most other companies do. So you can be sure that you're getting a lot more bandwidth for the money with us. GUARANTEE!!Average and total is pretty much the same thing.All software are pre-installed, you are required to provide your own license for each of them, if required Our engineers monitor more than 900 servers, routers, switches and fiber-optic connections within the primary ***** Network Operations Center located just inside SDC-01 (Sentris Data Center 1) in Seattle, Washington.

why would u even take time to consider a place that advertises almost 5megs of bandwidth and the server for $99/month? and they are claiming multihomed? even cogent only is not that cheap.

99/mo if you provide the media? A lot of places will install your software if you provide the media and licenses, at least a lot of small/reasonable places (dont expect rackshack to or anything). Also, they're part of *****? I know little about them other then what i hear, but if you do a search, ***** usually comes in the same sentence as Donhost, and thats a *bad* thing :(.

BTW, dont miss their $200 setup, that might be an indication, when their setup fee's are more then 2x their monthly fee's, it can sometimes indicate service is bad.

I think you missed my point. Unless there's a secret I don't know about, it's not possible to get bandwidth for LESS THAN $20/meg. Figuring in power, server, rackspace, they are indirectly selling bandwidth for around $10/meg.... not possible and no one is dumb enough to over sell THAT much.

Yes, whenever people are talking about bad hosts, ***** and DonHost come into play, thats what i'm making reference for.

2Mhost, also, if you haven't already, their page really had me curious, so i went back, read that little TOS at the bottom, theres some really frightening stuff in there :eek:.

50GB (173kbps) AVERAGE Transfer per day (about 1500GB total per month)

That's a lie ;) Maybe they're saying that you can boost to 500 MBPS for a little while, and they'll top that off of the average, but from my knowledge 1024 KBPS = 300 GB of transfer. They're really giving you 50 GB of transfer per month, not day ;).

300/(1024 / 173) is aproximately
50.76 GB/Month.

Sounds like dumb sales people. That make the deal much more realistic, as it sounds like a ****** resale.

Hmmm...

A little off topic, Maybe? This thread wasn't even about 2Mhost...

Go flame elsewhere :angry:

Even if they were 'legit' the offer wouldnt be ;)

iMail, HC and Windows would cost you more than $ 99 / month for the first year....never mind the hardware, data transfer, switch port etc....etc......

Cheers,

TopHosting is awful. Everything about it. Lies, lies, lies. DONT use them.

just to get more and more customers..

They just hope you don't use anywhere near that amount. They just hurt themselves in the long run.:rolleyes:

You go girl
