Wasn't that the case for kidéchire's, too? I think they started complaining at 150mbps but I don't really remember.
did the Intel C2350 always have a 10 euro setup fee?
Recently yep (in the 10-20€ range), except during special events (Black Friday etc.)
Ye I mean for this special with the $4.99 I had the feeling when it begun there was no setup fee.
Nope, there is a 10€ setup fee (...and it is not really a "special")
Are additional ip adresses available on these boxes?
If so, i’m going to snipe 1 off of someone
afaik you cant transfer boxes at online.net
Well, currently there are a few, with low disk I/O, they come in stock a few times.
If you ask online.net to replace the disk, they tell you, no more server in stock, we issue a refund.
Apparently Online is not capable of replacing disks, which every beginner can do.
Same thing we saw at the Kidichires, they never replace drives, they only replace servers and since they have no stock on these cheap deals anymore.
They just go and refund you, because for whatever reason its not possible or they do not want to replace the disks on these servers.
More likely they do not want to replace them.
Kimsufi does replace disks, as it should be.
Yea and you cannot transfer them, only outsource them.
Maybe you find someone who can outsource your one dedi, buying one now, is a waste of time.
Well mine will go as well back to the pile and will wait if one appears at AMS
The thing is, i just need something that can run my private webserver (doesn’t need amazing IO) and ill just use a kimsufi box or a storagevps as a fallback.
Also, i think these are something like the sys had at the start. Driver issue. I’ll see
Fine then, the strange thing was, same drives, about 1k hours difference and france is slower. Maybe its a driver related issue.
Mine is in AMS1 and yet has slightly disappointing disk speeds as well. Russian roulette but hey, yolo.
You can ask the support to check the dedi. I am not sure what will they will do once they figure out that it is underperforming though. I did that a while back and decided to cancel the contract after they checked that out.
Does someone know if offline now accepts PayPal for clients / former ones that did used their services with cc before?
@inthecloudblog said:
I always used a debit card with them and I noticed there's a Paypal option under the "Change Payment Mode" within the Console/Billing.
Online asks for ID before purchase?
They accept Paypal only if you have a service running for more than 3 months.
I'm in the US and I've never had Online.net ask for an ID.
Saw one in stock that I finally could of grabbed but I hesitated because I would hate to get one with the low disk speeds.
So for once they acted semi-nice. They offered me, to wait a couple days see if new stock arrives and replace my server and if not to offer me a refund.
Of course no stock appeared
I might try again in a couple of weeks.
Some appear once or twice a day, mostly in FR. Just keep your eyes peeled.
It's more of a whether there is any performing normally in FR, or only at NL.
edit Also I am wondering how many times they 'll offer an refund. Though technically they have to since it's not working as expected and in my case they tested the server admitted that.
Beware: there are some crap-ish servers in NL, too.
ams1 is better than dc2. I got the same old crap 30+ disk io server from dc2 so asked for a refund and now got ams1 which has got 100+ disk io.
today one popup but when i click order i was getting Error: Offer not available.
Snatched by someone else while you were making the screenshot.
France was restocked with just 2 Servers, NL with 1 servers, and a lot of people got notified, so yea gone quick.
when is this server restocking once a month or more times
i got a START-2-S-SATA and it's really disappointing as i speak.
I/O speeds are terrible. You can go look at my benchmark in my discussion
do they refund setup fee for this box if request for refund due to very low I/O ?
