Hello bit-techer's I'm trying to find a stable internet for running my server and i need a 2MBPS UPLINK in order to keep my server happy and running non-stop can anyone help me find the internet I looked at verizon FIOS but the fiber optics isn't around my house and bellsouth doesn't have 2MBPS uplink iif anyone can help i'll greatly appreciate
Annex M (ADSL2+M) allows for over 2meg upload speeds on a standard ADSL2 line. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ITU_G.992.5_Annex_M https://www.bethere.co.uk/generalFAQ.do#faq34 Otherwise, have you seen the price of SDSL lines for business?!
Yea i just got news that FIOS is not around my house i don't want cable cause it's bad and since i'm running a server it'll be against TOS T.T not that i follow them xD
Colocate the server at a local datacenter... like SagoNet based out of Tampa, Florida. It'll be the most cost-effective route, unless you have a couple thousand dollars (maybe 8-10k?) to pay for the last-mile fiber hook up (plus local loop) from an NSP such as Level3/Global Crossing/Cogent/InterNAP etc.
I wish i had a thousand people are saying that there's internet made for Server use but i'm guessing the price will be Expensive i'll ask my Local verizon To see if there's any way to get FIOS in my neighborhood or if there's any internet for my need but i still need suggestion Thanks
Colocation at a datacenter usually begins at $50/mo~ just for the rackspace, plus bandwidth, either allocated per Mbit/sec or via a GB/mo limit (through a 10Mbit/100Mbit/1Gbit port). But with a reasonable amount of bandwidth you'd be looking at around $100-$200/mo for colo at Sagonet. And you can't ask Verizon to just bring FiOS to your house, you have to wait for them to roll out the network infrastructure in your area, fiber-optics aren't cheap to run and they won't make you an exception, especially since FiOS for residential use, not for server hosting.
What are you planning on using your server for? As has already been hinted at it might be cheaper to find a hosting plan somewhere. What are you planning on running on the server and how BW intensive do reckon it will be? Even though most of us have the hardware to run gaming and internet servers the whole thing is still easier and cheaper as a hosted deal. Especially when you consider things like: needing a dedicated line, paying for electricity, constantly updating software, securing the system etc. etc. If you're just planning on running an 8 player CS source server then a dedicated 1mbit up will suffice more than fine. LOL my exact thoughts when reading the title
