Dang, wanted one of those KVMs but Fedex quoted me $183 for shipping. :(

Why not grab a SC Gen2 from Online.net? 2GB of RAM, 500GB drive, 100GB FTP backup space, dedicated CPU, and more bandwidth than you'll ever need for €5.99/month (with a setup fee though). I picked one up about 2 weeks ago and it's been solid with good speeds to my house here in FL and my...

It's not beneficial to anybody as you've clearly seen already. Offering tech support on a budget is what you've experienced with SYS already, the best way to make it work is to do the legwork yourself to avoid these kinds of tickets. For every 1 ticket I get they probably get 100 and that's...

I understand why you think this, it's probably a foreign concept to most, but in reality it is more beneficial to the client and the provider if the client does the legwork before opening a ticket. We've had a lot of  ticket where client go "OMG packet loss!" when the rest of the network is...

An MTR will show them where the packet loss is. You opened the ticket yet you're not willing to put any effort in resolving it? The ticket could have gone a lot differently if you just followed their request. Anybody who's ever called their ISP for tech support knows that step number one is...

Why not follow their directions in their original reply to help them? Fighting with them and refusing to help them doesn't help anybody. MTR results go a long way when troubleshooting network issues.

Can't wait for the new version of SQLBuddy to get released, I love it. :)

Secure Dragon LLC. was formed in October of 2010 and has been offering quality services since 2011. We are a fully registered Limited Liability Company with the Florida Department of State Division of Corporations and we obtain our IPs directly from ARIN (AS54561). We own all of our hardware and...

Still better than PayPal. :)

Anybody else remember back in the day when you didn't like something you just didn't use it?

tdale will pick them up and delete all services once he adds the user info to his database.

Thanks but the 500GB drive is what's appealing for me at that price point. :)

That's more than double the C7-M ULV which I used in my primary workstation for close to 3 years without any issues (switching between Windows XP and Fedora 13 XFCE). I think I'll be ordering one of those SC Gen2 boxes shortly and dropping some VPSs. :)

So I just unpacked about 50 DVDs and I realized that we don't have any DVD players anymore for some reason. I was looking into buying a DVD player but then we'd need to buy some place to put it. I figured the best solution is to rip the DVDs and put them on my NAS so we can watch them from any...

I was sad when I had to drop Comcast and their IPv6 goodness where I was able to use my own modem. I switched to Verizon FIOS and was happy to find out that I don't need to use their equipment either so I had them run a CAT5e into my house instead of coax so I could plug the ethernet cable...

Sent. I do have another VPS in GoRACK (NodeServ) so maybe I should run the same tests with that IP and add it to the spreadsheet. I also have another VPS in Miami not in QuadraNet so maybe I should also add that for comparison...

I considered doing speed tests but that's not something I could automate or perform in a reasonable amount of time so I might do traceroutes instead so we can see the routes being taken.

I've got a few VPSs in GoRACK (including a Crissic VPS) and one in QuadraNet Miami so I ran some pings to see the latency difference. For IPv4 QuadraNet has better latency although in some cases it's only by a few milliseconds, for IPv6 GoRACK has better latency although, again, some cases it's...

Surprise! When you're motivated by greed you're blind to common sense. "As a courtesy"? What courtesy? I think what they meant to say was "Since we're stealing your money and selling your data to another host we'll give you an extra 30 days with your empty VPS since we deleted all of your data...

No need, I have plenty of servers/VPSs with QuadraNet and GoRACK and I was planning on cancelling these two next time they are up for renewal.
