1) Cogent and anyone who uses them sucks major ass.
2) I did a Whois on gfx-hosting.com, and they reside in Buenos Aires.
They "state" they have 3 OC-3's and 2 DS-3's from 4 different providers (2 of them in Chap. 11).
If they buy that much bandwidth as they say they do (500+Mbps), then they can discount to the end user and/or oversubscribe.
Make sure they have all those circuits residing in one data center, and that they are running BGP, multi gateway router, switch redundancy.
Just remember, cheapest isn't always best

Congent - a provider that dumps bandwith prices to the lowest possible minimum and suckers ISPs into paying crazy money for the fibre layout. Once the fiber is lit, they offer unbelievably unreliable service and those people, thinking they were getting a good deal, get fucked in the end. Since the company just spent insane money on the fibre, they have nothing better to do but resell bandwith at the menitoned above low ass prices and hiding the fact that it's provided by Congent due to the fact that the public is aware that the dark cloud is not too far.I couldn't possibly know what I'm talking about, I'm completely, absolutely and definitively out of my fucking mind.Comment

so if they have fiber and all those providers........wouldn't they still be really fast and reliable?

Dude, don't mind the Cogent haters. A lot of people use it with no problem. It's like buying a Honda (Cogent) instead of the Mercedes (Verio). A Benz is a nice safe & reliable car that costs a lot of money.

Its not 0.15 Cents per Gigabyte... I will explain.
The offer a 10Mbps CAPPED line for $500/per Month (Server not included).
This means that if you use all 10 Mbps at PEAK, you'll average about 5Mbps. (This is the amount THEY have to pay for).
So, if your lucky and sustain a 5Mbit bitrate you'll do about 1,700 gigs per month. This means your paying 30 cents per gig + server rental fees. How much is the server rental? Set-up fees? Colo Fees? I don't see any of this on their page. (i.e. What's the ACTUAL cost per month of this package?)
I know almost any hosting company out there can and will match this deal... It's nothing special once you read between the lines.

cogent sells 100mbit feeds for $1k/month.
i've yet to have many problems with them, i think a lot of hearsay is passed along about them just because they're cheap. i'm looking at getting one of the 100mbit deals myself, because it's fast and reliable enough for me and that's an insane price not to take advantage of it.
listen to everyone say cogent sucks all you want, but plenty of people use them and they have a lot of fiber lit around the US. love it or hate it, they've got tier-1 capacity.
i'm sure people can argue about verio's instability as well, we had plenty of problems with them back in the day. half the posts on this board are just people playing the telephone game or passing on what their biased host told them (come with us, we don't use that cogent crap...)

Now that's better. A fake piss match is much more entertaining than "question and answer" spam. However, fake piss matches need 2 personas to work. Since Im not your alter ego or a posting partner, this is not a fake piss match but more of an Emotional Bait post. Emotional Bait Post = You feign outrage, you draw a response, you fake a counter......you get the point. See, by me writing this response, I bumped up your thread...possibly adding dozens of readers to your thread. Getting better. I specially dig your command of the feigned outrage requirement for this technique and the particularly angry persona you deliberately chose that takes himself too serious--nothing more "realistic" than an outraged poster. Another variant is a person that appeals to compassion--those work better on Yahoo stock message boards and USENET support group newsgroups than on this site called GoFuckYourself. Outrage/confrontation/being jaded is more de rigeur in this venue. So kudos on selecting the right persona. You should write a script for BangBus, they can use more of that emotional urgency and pathos.
Have fun!

catindahat,
Don't get mad about people who just want to stir some shit. It's the nature of this board. There are a lot of bright people here who can give valuable advice, and there are plenty of those who have nothing to do but to try to stir some shit. Just ignore them. :-) Regardless of the fact of you spamming or not, I think it's a good topic.
This is a good topic. If you find more info about http://www.gfx-hosting.com/ then fire it away. The server that they are offering is $700 payable over 3-4 month in case you wondered. How do I know this? Two ways: 1) I am a spamming bastard working for http://www.gfx-hosting.com/ or I just ICQed and asked. You guys figure it out.
I am kinda worried that http://www.gfx-hosting.com/ is located in Argentina with all that stuff about economy breakdown and shit, but other than that, the site http://www.gfx-hosting.com/ and info on it looks very professional.Comment
