    Datacenter in Ohio

    I am currently looking for a Datacenter located in Columbus Ohio. I am in need of a 100sq ft cage to lease with expansion opportunities. Does anyone know of a DC in or around Columbus Ohio?

    Nothing. In fact, I am a Qwest DIA customer in Boston.

    They just make me laugh sometimes with their !pro-active, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc... But I digress. I am not here to say bad things about my provider At least they are damn reliable unlike COGENT!

    I wish I still lived in Boston..I lived my entire life there, and could always find what ever I needed. Now I live in Ohio, and can't find anything, and when I do find something, it's 2-3 hours away.

    Heheh.. Yea..

    Well, too bad Qwest doesn't do any 50% commission (lol) referral programs like XO does


    EDIT: May be you should move back to Boston and split the cost for cage at 230 Congress St. with gigE bandwidth

    yea but they usually don't allow people to come to their datacenter. Talk to their owner about it he probably can allow access, who knows..

    They are not Qwest...

    They run in independent facility. They used to have lines from Qwest from three different qwest POPs but Qwest being QWEST! they cancelled them and replaced with timewarner/gblx bw.

    Their site is a little bit outdated; but yes they have their own datacenter. PM me offline and I'll give you the owner's IM/email contact information, I dunno if I should post it in public forums or not.

    The owner of FOONET does not let anyone from the outside into the data center. Even if you have $10,000 worth of equipment he doesn't allow physical access for security reasons.

    I think it is very paranoid..If I was going to put my own equipment there and pay top dollar for the Bandwidth and the space, and I can't gain access to my own equipment, and SPACE THAT I RENT.....I don't think so..

    You might try emailing the owner at paul@foonet.net and see if you can arrange for physical access. They may make an exception for you.
