hey guys, since i dont know too much about how reliable hosts are, i would like to ask for some advice about whether or not this host is good or not:
http://www.cyberwings.com
Their connectivity seems to be only four T-1 lines, but they have good packages....mostly annually billed ones and they are very cheap. Please take a look at it and tell me what you think of this host. Thanks!

I have had about 8 accounts with cyberwings for about 4 - 6 months now. Their prices just cant be beat. I host a few of my personal sites on their servers. They have their own datacenter, and have live 24/7 support via their chat room, someone is almost always in there (usually about 50 people).
Overall I rate them:
Uptime: Average
Support: Above Average
Price: Amazing.
Try them out, and if you dont like them you wont have to lose a lot, their plans cost next to nothing :)

Agree with themmiz.. though they have had a few issues with their upstream provider in the past two days which has resulted in a bit of downtime but on the whole they are great

Using them was a hugh mistake. I have been waiting days for them to get their bandwidth restored hoping to backup my database so I could restore it on a real host. I've given up hope of that.
Cyberwings has without a doubt been the worst hosting experience I've ever had. Need proof, look at the ranting of Shawn White on their own website http://www.cwstatus.com
It's horendous.

I'm just waiting for their helpdesk to come back online so I can request a refund. My advice, if you really can't afford a decent host, go to tripod or hypermart.net and use their free services. At least your site will be accessible.
You might want to a few months because they've been down a lot nowadays, and you might regret for considering them in the first place. Don't let their prices fool you.
