    Can you shorten down your signature to 2 lines?

    To other mods: This might not be the mistake of the provider, it might be caused by the change of \n to <br> few months ago.

    Just wanted to chime in that I've had the Opteron 1385 special for about 9 months now and like it a lot. This year, uptimerobot.com has logged only 8 minutes of downtime on the system and I'd like to bet those were days that I physically rebooted the machine myself. Disks I received are old, yes, but still kicking. For the price, 8TB of disks for $25 is tough to beat ($3.12/TB paid monthly, even cheaper when paying yearly) .

    This is impressive. I didn't spot immediately that it's a 6 drive server, 2x2TB + 4x1TB. So 8TB for $25. Even Hetzner doesn't offer that (did anyone mention Hetzner?). I'm gonna resist, but wow :).

    What does it mean? Aren't all of dedi rent only?
    Could you explain?

    They also offer rent-to-own (RTO) servers as well.

    .. wakes up after a long coma ... and sees Dacentec is still hustling L5420's.

    To those of you that have bought there lately, how is the network and stability of the network these days.

    I have it, and it works like a charm, even though the drives are old.

    Dacentec do have an option of leasing some of their servers. Than means, after a year (IIRC) the server becomes yours and you can either let it to the DC paying only for racking and bandwidth or have it to your own place paying only for the transfer.

  • sinsin Member

    Does Dacentec have a rescue system? It's been awhile since I used them and I can't remember...wanted to boot into rescue and try installing FreeBSD via mfsbsd.

  • saibalsaibal Member

    They provide Spider KVMs on request.

    Give me advice please I just can't understand.
    So, I have ServerRussia & ServerDacentec.
    If I try to upload files from ServerRussia to ServerDacentec via ftps or sftp speed avg 300-400 kilobytes/s
    But! When I run wget or lftp from ServerDacentec to ServerRussia (so like a simple downloading) I get 15-20 megabytes/s and thats quite good!
    So:
    ServerRu > ServerDacentec = slow
    ServerDacentec < ServerRu = fast

    How its possible?
    What I do wrong?

    @SashkaPro said:

    Asymetric Routing.
    Uni-directional congestions somewhere.

    @SashkaPro said:

    Probably not much.
    You can perform traceroutes in both directions, try to narrow down the slow link and open a ticket with your providers.

  • TheLinuxBugTheLinuxBug Member

    SashkaPro said: How its possible?

    ServerRu is using cheap outbound routes, likely bulk transit, which is oversold and doesn't currently have the capacity to provide high speeds. Upload bandwidth is what costs the most money. Where as the download route is probably over a better provider that can provide better throughput and usually providers do not QOS download as much as upload.

    You can do as @dfroe said and traceroute and ticket, but depending, they may not be able to change it if they prefer one specific provider/route for outbound traffic which has poor throughput to the destination network.

    Cheers!

    Lucky you. I didn't. :)

    This one will probably replace one of my Kimsufi Atoms. Although located in the US I expect hope to achieve higher throughput than KS FastEthernet from Europe. Dacentec network seems quite good based on some first tests so I'm curious to see have it will compete.

    Eh. Solved. It was much simplier.
    Problem from my trojan. Dualbooted to Fedora and speed became normal.

    Thanks. It's interesting to know that "Asymetric routing" exist.

    I thought of replacing my KS Atom but luckily I threw my card away several days back when PHP-Friends came up with a 10GB RAM server offer. It is too dangerous to have plastic within reach when surfing LET.

    Until you decided to link your card to your Paypal account...

    I hoped it was that easy. Nowadays you only have to click PayPal and press three keystrokes: Ctrl + Alt + A (KeePass AutoType). So if you really want to surf safely on LET, make sure to use random passwords you don't know for your PayPal accounts and close your KeePass before visiting LET. :smiley:

    I changed my PayPal password to a randomly generated 32-character gibberish and refused to write it down. This way, I have time to stop myself because I have to reset my password.

    That's one way to stop your spending habit but if I did that I will probably reset the password anyway lol

    We need a sticky on ways to stop yourself from impulsively ordering servers.

    Another way is to get a wife (if you don't have one) and send the monthly credit card statements to her.

    That would be suicidal as this forum is about promoting Low End deals, imagine Amazon or Ebay posted ways to stop impulsiveness will just drive their sales down.

    Ok, I take that suggestion back. After all, I rather idle servers than LV bags.
