    It's 100% HE + Cogent. I've been quite happy with Cogent routes, HE is mostly 'meh' but it depends on the destination.

    Even for the low of the low, it's nice to see their ports aren't being over saturated otherwise this wouldn't be quite possible. I know that Kansas is pretty subsidized which helps, but time will tell in a month or two if they are able to stay steady still or if they will start limiting some customers.

    They've been doing this for awhile (unmetered option), my guess is that any problems you'll see will be rack-level switch saturation which just requires moving some people around.

    More Core2Duo's in stock

    Nope

  • vedranvedran Veteran

    If you want Core2Duo you can try ordering Core2Quad and there is a chance you'll get Core2Duo (like I did) ...

    This is the weirdest installation of Ubuntu I've ever seen.

    • Normally the first user is a sudoer, it was not.
    • DNS resolution was broken.
    • Unbound was installed (not a default) and it wasn't working.
    • Using Europe mirrors for apt-get... in central US?
    • Default swap was set to 90MB.
    • Everything was updated (assuming a netinstall)
    • Postfix was installed (not a default with netinstall)

    I might drop this server just because I don't know what else they did to it...

  • k0nslk0nsl Member

    Yes, unbound was installed on mine as well; 8.0G swap; they forgot to add the user into the sudoers...so rather than fix it, they did a complete re-install ;)

    8GB of swap? What? How are they deciding these default configurations!?

    The motherboard I got apparently only supports 3.2GB of RAM. 800MB is reserved for video memory... for a headless server...

    That best formula of success, do cheap dedi, advertise on LET than sold all of them in minutes.. Than everybody start asking for more stocks :P

    And scratching their heads finding out weird stuff. Like manual installs???

  • vedranvedran Veteran

    They replaced the wrong CPU in less than an hour, I didn't expect them to even bother with it, I was pleasantly surprised.

    Anyone ordered a Core2Duo and already got it delivered ? I ordered on Friday so I guess I'll need to have a bit more patience (at least until Tuesday)...

    I asked for a KVM: has anyone have experience with the KVM (apart from what I already read in this thread) ?

    Thanks !

    I meant from the providers standpoint.

    I don't blame customers for being eager to get their service ;)

    Yeah. Mixed with enviousness.

    Do they have KVM's?

  • hawchawc Moderator, LIR

    I do. Its painfully slow

    Could someone who's gotten their server do a bandwidth test (and/or a whole Serverbear suite)?

    Does it appear that bandwidth is capped at 100Mbit? Some people have gotten 1Gbps.

  • SilvengaSilvenga Member

    DrSteveBrule said: Could someone who's gotten their server do a bandwidth test (and/or a whole Serverbear suite)?

    This is on the DuoCore 4GB server:

    UnixBench score: 2248.9
I/O rate: 98.0 MB/second
Bandwidth rate: 95.4 MB/second

    Thanks @Silvenga! That's really helpful.

    Bandwidth to the east coast seems a little questionable. For my purposes, I'm hoping it does a bit better to NYC/NJ. Still, who could complain at these prices, even if it was capped at 100Mbit?

    Impressive, I wonder if it's capped after 30TB?

    Most likely if they found out they'd switch it back to 100mbps.. so. uh.. please stop mentioning it ;)

    Before you use any bandwidth this is already a money loser. I wonder what the thinking is behind such a sale.

    They've been doing this for years. Not with that much bandwidth, but still, they give some use to their servers in stock.
