How long does theplanet.com take to set a new server up?

I just finished the sign up form like an hour ago, just wondering how quick they are about getting new boxes going

Only on their unmetered packages. Their premium network is cogent-free.

The network is fully meshed and redundant with 6 backbone providers. The current network consists of ATT (OC3), UUNet (OC3), InterNap (2x100Mbps), Qwest (1Gbps), and Cogent Communications (5x100Mbps).

My First one was less than 24 hours. When I called for a second one it was done in a matter of four hours (though cpanel license still takes 24 hours).

The Planet rocks, good call!

fingers crossed the datacentre isnt on the hurricane path :P

Edit: "Our main datacenter is state-of-the-art in both security and design and is one of the only datacenters rated to withstand an F5 grade tornado. Our facility and network engineers are on site 24/7 to monitor the impact of Hurricane Rita and will be able to address any unforeseen issues immediately."

:cool:

Usually 1 or two days for me, but it depends if you order extra RAM or anything special. Dallas is not near the ocean so it should not have any hurricane problems.

My first server took about 24 hours. After that, they are on the ball within a matter of 2-5 hours.
